I also learned Rust by completing (the first couple of sets of) these challenges. It was fan-damn-tastic. Way, way better than Project Euler, or reimplementing Yet Another Blog Engine or whatever. I can't recommend them highly enough, and I learned some useful crypto too!

I used them to teach myself F# (or more accurately, to force myself to apply F#). Enjoyed the challenges and the learning (of both crypto and F#).
