The article "The Fundamental Theorem for Curves in the n-Dimensional Euclidean Space" contains a complete proof of the theorem and the necessary conceptual background. It is accompanied by the notebook Eucurves.nb treating curves in 2, 3, 4, and n dimensions.
The notebook EuCurvesv3.nb is the third version of an interactive textbook of Euclidean curve theory. For the contents look into the file EuCurvesv3.pdf. The zip-file eucurvesv3.zip contains the notebook,the packages needed for working with it, and some additional matter: Alfred Gray's collection of curves definitions (Mathematica code) and a paper titled "The Fundamental Theorem for Curves in the n-Dimensional Euclidean Space" describing E. Cartan's method of moving frames applied to Euclidean curve theory as the theoretical background of the presentation.
