In a previous post I’ve discussed FastArg, a small utility for efficiently handling command-line arguments. Today I’ll briefly go over the code behind the tool. I’ll also include a full code listing.  read full post

FastArg allows you to tie switches to delegates that handle them, and relieves you of the task of parsing the arguments yourself. It also has a few neat features which improve usability.  read full post

The last two Euler problems were rather anticlimactic, so let’s just keep going.  read full post

The last Euler problem was pretty trivial, so let’s hope problem number 20 is more interesting…  read full post
