I agree, but I use it only because it is the second Euler Project problem --
I'm doing them in order and feel it would be remiss to skip one.  They've
been implemented in dozens of other languages and so provide a good
reference point for users familiar with other languages.

I welcome anything that will help Mercury be more accessible to new users.
 I have but one request: can you please not resort to the omnipresent
Fibonacci Sequence that seems to permeate each and every tutorial
investigation of functional and/or logical languages?  It seems to be the
"Hello, world" of the functional/logical crowd and is becoming a bit of a
cliché.
