Algorithms for All

December 27, 2008

A happy quack to the reader who sent me this link to the ACM’s collection of old, bad, not too old and not too bad algorithms. You can access the list and download the algorithms here. The collection task was a big one. Tim Hopkins, University of Kent, has his name on the referenced page. The geese at ArnoldIT.com want to thank him for his work. Keep in mind that algorithms’ beauty may be found in the eye of the beholder. Some of these are gems; others will choke even a modern hot rod computer. Test and retest, quacks the goose.
