We might also want to review the various exercise difficulties.

When I run a script that compares against the median difficulty estimate across tracks, it suggests

2 -> 4 - affine-cipher
1 -> 4 - all-your-base
1 -> 3 - allergies
1 -> 3 - anagram
1 -> 3 - atbash-cipher
8 -> 5 - circular-buffer
1 -> 4 - diamond
1 -> 3 - flatten-array
4 -> 2 - gigasecond
1 -> 4 - nth-prime
2 -> 4 - pascals-triangle
1 -> 3 - perfect-numbers
1 -> 3 - phone-number
1 -> 3 - prime-factors
4 -> 2 - square-root

I think we should increase the difficulty of all-your-base, anagram, nth-prime, perfect-numbers, phone-number, prime-factors

I think abash and diamond should also be higher.

Sorting by difficulty is good. Students tend to start at the beginning and continue one-by-one. I think leap and two-for should be the first two exercises to ease them into the language.
