Guess that explains all the characters around here. :-)
Actually I find vectorizing puzzles to be quite fun as puzzles. As do
many others it seems, given how quickly questions like "how do I do
this efficiently" get answered around here. But sometimes I just want
code to write itself -- and do so efficiently -- without me having to
think. ;-)
