They call it the Python Challange, but PureBasic is surely up to the job.

I'm on level 2. Only 20 more after this one!

Bah ... I am stuck at level 05. Seems to be rather Python dependent now.
I don't say it would be impossible to solve this riddle ... but IMHO it seems
to be a lot easier with level 05 when you could play around with a certain
python module you need for this ... :roll:

Hmmm ... do anyone of you know other riddles like this concerning general
programming languages :?:

I haven't used Python and I don't even know what to do in Level 1. :(

I searched the net and all what I found concerning this topic was the
pythonriddle. That really makes me think about creating such a riddle for
general programming languages - so no one is limited to e.g. python specific
modules.

However ... unfortunately I have no time :!: But I keep that in mind :roll:

BTW ... with cheating I solved Level05. I found a RUBY source
in the net and could run it (on a computer in my university).

However, it seems that the next level (#06) requires some python modules
as well ... so sadly I do quit here with this riddle, because I not interested
in Python at all...

I was on level 2 :p and I said to myself "if you keep on using your time for this shiat you willl never finish your works" then I quitted.

Level 1? thats simple use your calc.exe (cientific mode?).
I guess you can use pb for level 2.. its about mixed words, so with its string functions you can make it easy?.

:o Yes I want a non-phyton web!

Here's a non-programming kinda similar idea type of puzzle page:
