For Project Euler enthusiasts: here's a similar site focused on bioinformatics that I've found very very good: http://rosalind.info/

Also suitable for learning new languages (and bioinformatics).

The implementation of the site is awesome.



Rosalind is a great way to pick up some bio along with your algorithms.

The instructors also created a course on Coursera called "Bioinformatics Algorithms" that I highly recommend. It's basically an ordered set of rosalind problems but accompanied by a textbook and lectures. It was one of the most interesting things I did last year.


Agreed - it's one of the most enjoyable Coursera courses I've taken. Part Two starts February 16th. [1]

To expand a bit, what I liked about the course was the textbook, algorithms and their practical application in a non-CS field with a good set of programming problems that are automatically assessed.
