I Am a Computer God, Or Geek, Or Something

In any case, I have managed to log into Gretchen's email and extract, print, and fill out (the last by hand) the forms that we need to have for Katie and Julie's dance camp that starts tomorrow morning. There are still a couple of items that need to be added, because for one reason or another, I don't have things like the phone number for the girls' pediatrician.

Because that is not a computer thing. That is apparently a Mom thing. :)

In other news, I think that I have figured out how to solve my computation problem at work. Now, I just need to spend a day or so coding it and testing it out to see if the algorithm that I have in my head actually produces the right results when reduced to electronic impulses.

But I think I have an impulse to wait until later -- like tomorrow -- to sort this out...

At 11:51 PM, waiting till tomorrow is an excellent idea.

Sometimes it's tricky to realize the algorithm in your head as code. (And then there's the bit about making it correct code. Wasn't it Knuth who said something close to use this with a grain of salt: I have only proved it correct, not tried it.
