Excuse my ignorance, but it would appear to me that this code needs i to be zero to begin with in order to work properly, yet as far as I can see the value of i will be undefined (i.e. random) at the start of the program. What am I missing?
I feel I should stand up for the show and point out that there were still some fantastic episodes in the 9th series. I missed 7 and bits of 8 though, so don't feel ready to judge them though.
Who modded this interesting? CVs are used by everyone, at all stages of their career (sometimes they are subsumed by application forms, but often the application forms recommend you tack on a CV anyway). Ignore the anti-education troll.
Indeed. A rising proportion of my spam is e-mails bounced from someone joe-jobbing with my address as the from. Never trust the from field in an e-mail.
Indeed, I was thinking the same think. My only thought is that it would be a spoken slur of probably, e.g. "I prolly ought to do that now", but I've never seen it written down like that.
Can you give any examples? I've finished it and am left with the impression that there was barely a plot. You start off in the city, the soldiers chase you for no reason, you meet old friends, have to run around for no real reason, then run around to try and rescue Eli, who you then rescue from a guy who is trying to make deals with an army you know nothing about, and then you stop him. What more could I have found out? It's a fun game though:-)
Actually, I still agree with your point having read all three pages. Not enough specific examples of problems in languages and what the better way would have been.
While I admit it is not in the core of C++, Boost have some nice sum types (boost::variant and boost::any). Variant would allow you to do the same thing that you describe above, recursively descending through parse trees very simply. Though many features of Boost will apparently make it into the next C++ standard.
I'm afraid we're going to have to revoke your slashdot user account. Understanding a subject area properly and trying to correct people on matters other than spelling and grammar is not permitted.
PERL is a great language. Ugly yes, but once you get used to it there's is no going back to C/C++ or JAVA, at least in a mostly tool-less environment like UNIX. For many classes of programs, the productivity you get from PERL is an order of magnitude greater than in C/C++ (some would argue that I just need to learn the STL classes....).
Actually, I always find that Perl has a tipping point. Usually I start writing a text processing program in Perl, and somewhere around a few hundred lines I realise that using Perl has become untenable and I have to revert to another language (C++ in my case). Perl is just too sloppy and too hard to read to be used for large programs in my opinion.
By the time you've used EP on the problem, I think quicker would be out of the window;) I gather from other comments than manual rearranging is possible (I didn't read the problem too closely admittedly).
Let me be clearer; I wasn't meaning that diplomacy would reason directly with the radical Islamics. It is more my opinion that the radicals can rise in power because of an anti-American climate, and this climate would be lessened by diplomatic and other non-violent means.

Does that mean all the hackers will have to send their malicious code written in this?
Shame my mod points expired yesterday, I was just going to point that out too.

Curriculum Vitae, I'm afraid.
In Soviet Russia, Communists call you Bill Gates!
Apparently, it's the difference between British and American English.

I'm beginning to understand how Bush managed to get enough support to invade Iraq - geez, does the solution to all disputes have to be to go to war?
Certainly did, then wondered how it ran Windows CE...

With hot grits?
Soviet Russia jokes are for the elderly ;-)

That's true in terms of OO-language X vs plain language X. I'm not sure if BF has I/O but it is all nitpicking. Glad you found it interesting :-)

You may be interested in this guy's thoughts on the matter of Turing Completeness.
Surely it's number 2. Where is the confusion?

But unprovoked wars are something that the 21st century should put up with?
