Public Code Repositories?

Posted by Cliff on Friday March 28, 2003 @01:15PM from the preventing-wheel-reinvention dept.

dubious9 asks: "Today I was refactoring a parser of mine to use a better implementation of a string searching algorithm. I went to the internet trying to find a good code repository where I might have a chance to find an implementation of a good algorithm, but a cursory glance turned out no clear winners. SourceForge was the best that I could find. Where is the best online repository/library of common and reusable code snippets?" We've tackled this subject a once or twice over the years, is SourceForge really the best answer or are there other options?

I'm a Perlie and since it opened I've found Perlmonks totally invaluable -- their Q/A section actually has questions that I would ask if wasn't so beyond asking for help.

On that thread, My java-esque friends tell me Java Junkies is equally good if you're of the Bean persuation.

Both sites are, in case you didn't guess, based on the Everything Content Engine which is why they look so much alike.
