The bit about priorities is spot on. I got the first set done with Ruby in a week's spare hours. The execution speed (and some of your other posts) have me motivated to learn Go, so set two is on hold until I get comfortable with brute forcing ciphers in a statically typed language. If I were European I'd probably be done by now :)
- d4mi3n 14y agoIf you already know ruby, have you considered using JRuby for this? I wouldn't besmirch anyone trying to pick up a new language, but I am curious to hear if there were any technical reasons for going with something else.
- dpritchett 14y agoJust for the fun of it, really. I'm sure MRI or JRuby would suffice given properly considered execution strategies. Optimizations have been half the fun for me so far with MRI 1.9.
