Great job indeed! I would like to mention the book: "Mathematica=C2=AE:A Problem-Centered Approach" by Roozbeh Hazrat A little book (only 203p) that nevertheless succeeds in teaching fundamentals of programming in Mathematica through well chosen examples from number theory make it thus easily accessible.
