I would've arrived at the teacher's solution, but the question allows different interpretations and both answers are correct assuming different interpretations. The correct answer would be "I do not know, this problem is under-specified."

what the article fails to mention is that BIFs can mess with your timing -- a BIF call costs one reduction, no matter how long it takes. I'd say that this is comparable in seriousness as the array-operation example, since BIF calls are prob

erlang is a quite old language, as such, it doesn't move very fast. Erlang R15 brought some nice features, like (FINALLY!) line numbers in error reports, there will be a better (built-in) dict rather soon.

absolutely worth trying; had two lucid dreams I can remember, one of which was flying over the Swiss alps. It was as real as real life gets, it's quite weird and amazing. Unfortunately didn't succeed yet. r/luciddreaming is good to follow,

oh, sorry for the terminology glitch. Know about turing completeness, have used it for optimizing execution speed of programs and making TAs go insane.

my vote goes to time-out. What I would do is convey that visually: have the task fade out slooooowly, as it reaches invisible state, it's actually deleted, until then, the undo-link is available. (Which probably should not fade out)

You wouldn't pass, because you didn't read the specs! "prints the numbers from 1 to 100." -- you printed 0-100! ;-) Just kidding, nice solution. Show's nicely how terrible and awesome the precompiler is.

since an IQ test is measuring AND defining IQ at the same time, it's hard for it to be biased. IQ is what IQ tests measure. It's all made up. How is the situation in the U.S. regarding assessment centers? That kind of stuff is allowed?
