Thanks to Ton, MTV, Prakash, Andreas and Yanick for breathing life into a near-dead tournament!
Nice for a non-CS guy (me!) to get an introduction to a useful algorithm AND have 2 options in front of me! Nice write-up and pretty pictures too (non-CS guys need pictures)! I also want to extend my personal thanks to this months referees for leaving 5 spots open in the top 10! It was an added incentive to let things pile up at work. I can feel the onrush of guilt the morning after .... gotta get to work. One more thing - Prakash, I am after you! 34 ( 30) Prakash Kailasa $ 319,960.00 (9/13) 35 ( 48) Michael Wrenn $ 304,506.67 (8/13) Michael
