That would be interesting, but I'm not in a good position to do it. I wrote a solution for #1, without any concern about speed. I did not try to solve #2 or #3. I only thought about them long enough to decide if they were too hard or too easy. I was concerned that #3 might be too hard, but we ended up with 6 good solutions. I don't want to read through, and analyze all the code. Assigning a score was enough work. I also do not have permission to disclose the code for most of the non-winning solutions. Maybe the winners or the other contestants would like to describe their algorithms and what they learned. Regards, Rob Craig Rapid Deployment Software http://www.RapidEuphoria.com
