Can we reuse Project Euler problems?
It appears under their Copyright terms we can do so as long as suitable attribution is given. However, if I am wrong about this, then the draft task should of course be deleted. --PureFox (talk) 09:03, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
- Just because a problem/puzzle appears on Project Euler doesn't mean they own it. I've seen some of their problems that have been around on newsgroups (alt.math.recreational, alt.puzzles, etc) of days long gone by. -- Gerard Schildberger (talk) 10:12, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
- I'm sure you're right and some problems may go back as far as Diophantus though Project Euler may be the first organization to apply copyright to them. I can't see any reason not to reuse the occasional problem myself as long as we don't make a habit of it - I don't think the admins would be too happy if Calmosoft decided to run through the whole lot! --PureFox (talk) 10:30, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
