A blog for my notes on perl and various other programming languages and applications I work on.

Fun times at Project Euler.
Felt like I needed to exercise my brain the other day so I went over to Project Euler to solve a few problems. It was problem #4. I tried to solve it on an old 3B2 computer running Unix System V with Perl 4.0. It didn't go too well. So I ran the same code on my MetaArpa account on SDF and solved the thing in less than a minute ha ha. I like the old system though because it forces me to realize just how bad my algorithms are when the site states that all problems should take less than a minute to solve with a normal computer. Fun day.
