My normal test algorithms are different sort types, insertion, substitution, and even bubble sort. For OO langauages I also like to try and implement some of the gang-of-four design patterns like abstract factory or strategy. An ideal combination is a strategy pattern implementing different types of sort. ------------------------------------------- What ees dis, some kind of hufty?	[reply]

I have an O(1) solution to the halting problem! It only works on fast computers though.	[reply]

I am an old hand in a matrix-based chatroom game called "The Duel of Swords". It started on AOL but has now moved to the WWW <a href="http://www.ringsofhonor.org/" target="_new">The Rings of Honor</a>. I gained an edge in the game by compiling scouting reports on prospective opponents. A database is used to manage the many-to-many relationship. The programming thus includes database access, number crunching into a couple hundred accumulators, and output formatting. The first platform was an Apple/Claris HyperCard stack. I then used it as my lab project for college database course (Oracle and Java). Now it is a web application using LAMP. Perl modules are CGI, DBI + DBD::mysql, and HTML::Template. I would love to show it to you all, but it is password protected. :) --- The harder I work, the luckier I get.	[reply]
