I would like to expand the programming tutorials, though I doubt I'll go as abstract as Stepanov. I do provide some discussion of algorithms that generalize, e.g. the Euclidean algorithm and Pingala's algorithm for exponentiation. But I don't present these in such a generic form.

I've got a grant application out right now... if it goes through, I'll have some funding to support expansion of programming tutorials. I'd like to include more depth in both programming and number theory. On the programming side, I'd include classes, recursion, memoization, visualization. On the number theory side, I'd include Gaussian/Eisenstein/polynomials, Pollard rho and maybe SQUFOF for factorization.
