I’ve got to get back on the daily exercise bandwagon. So today I completed Binary Search Tree on exercism.org. The only part that got me was the enumerators, I didn’t know what they wanted and the way they wanted me[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Again, no exercise, I wanted to polish up the competition entry. Unfortunately, I was too slow and had the code broken when the submission timer ran out. I guess I am just going with what I had yesterday. Someone remind[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
No exercism.org exercise today, I need to get my OLC Code Jam 2025 entry working well enough to submit. Tomorrow I only have until about noon. I might be able to do some last minute cleanup but I want something[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Today’s exercise was to find all the rectangles in an ASCII art drawing of spaces, +, -, and |. I think my code is a nice readable version. You don’t need a dozen functions for this. I did see one[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Today’s exercise was giving change in the minimum number of coins. My recursive approach was working well until it gets to change of 999. This causes the search space to explode and time out. I got it running in less[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Todays exercise was to build a tree out of some records. I am not sure my code is better than the code I was supposed to replace but it looks better to me. A whole lot of unspecified conditions on[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Today’s exercise was food chain but it was really just programmatically recreating the “I know an old lady who swallowed a fly” song. I’m not going to bother with an image today. The output looks exactly the same. I did[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
