Nice! It is a tragedy that programmers nowadays don't read Dijkstra nor think about what he wrote and meant. I tell people to think of him as their "Cus D'Amato" if they want to be a "Mike Tyson" in their field i.e. a man who has thought deeply about the subject, knows all the angles and can "train" one in the "correct" manner of writing programs.
