May the Algorithms be with you



Sounds like a religious sect.
I'm an Algorist, and believe in the Algorithmic Trinity:
The Almighty Sequence , the Great Selection, and the Holy Repetition.
May the brackets obey you.


After 30 years of Maths, and yes I do use pythag's often enough to refute the teacher saying "as if we really need it in real life...." (Electrical maths is based on the power triangle and trig) I have to get out of thinking algebraically and get my head into the parsing phrases, and follow those loops! What-If-Else? huh? In Maths and stuff its always been If-Then.

Its going to be a struggle to shake of auto pilot.
