+# The original 'makefile' has a flaw:
+# 1) it overrides CFLAGS
+# 2) it does not pass extra "FLAGS" to $(CC) that could come from environment
+#
+# It means :
+# - we need to edit 'makefile' for different builds (DEBUG, etc...), which is
+#   not practical at all.
+# - Also, it does not allow to run all tests without editing the test source
+#   code.
+#
+# To use this makefile (GNU make only):
+#   "make": build with all predefined tests (without editing test source code)
+#   "make mem": perform memcheck with all tests enabled
+#   "make unit": build standalone (unit) test
+#   "make debug": build standalone test with debugging code

+# Difference Of Squares
+
+Find the difference between the square of the sum and the sum of the squares of the first N natural numbers.
+
+The square of the sum of the first ten natural numbers is
+(1 + 2 + ... + 10)² = 55² = 3025.
+
+The sum of the squares of the first ten natural numbers is
+1² + 2² + ... + 10² = 385.
+
+Hence the difference between the square of the sum of the first
+ten natural numbers and the sum of the squares of the first ten
+natural numbers is 3025 - 385 = 2640.
+
+You are not expected to discover an efficient solution to this yourself from
+first principles; research is allowed, indeed, encouraged. Finding the best
+algorithm for the problem is a key skill in software engineering.
+
+## Getting Started
+
+Make sure you have read the "Guides" section of the
+[C track][c-track] on the Exercism site. This covers
+the basic information on setting up the development environment expected
+by the exercises.
+
+## Passing the Tests
+
+Get the first test compiling, linking and passing by following the [three
+rules of test-driven development][3-tdd-rules].
+
+The included makefile can be used to create and run the tests using the `test`
+task.
+
+    make test
+
+Create just the functions you need to satisfy any compiler errors and get the
+test to fail. Then write just enough code to get the test to pass. Once you've
+done that, move onto the next test.
+
+As you progress through the tests, take the time to refactor your
+implementation for readability and expressiveness and then go on to the next
+test.
+
+Try to use standard C99 facilities in preference to writing your own
+low-level algorithms or facilities by hand.
+
+## Source
+
+Problem 6 at Project Euler [http://projecteuler.net/problem=6](http://projecteuler.net/problem=6)
+
+## Submitting Incomplete Solutions
+It's possible to submit an incomplete solution so you can see how others have completed the exercise.
