    ...Plus. Watching Nat flip through pictures, though, I noticed something: once he became familiar with the sequence of the pictures, he was clicking on the pictures as if it mattered where he clicked. The image viewer didn't care: any click on the picture would show the next picture. But if Nat knew that the next picture was of a thing off to the left of the current picture, he would click on the left of the image. If he knew the next picture was through a door at the right of the picture, he w...

    ...plus fixed overhead), while f6() begins by allocating a list of N items, which usually costs 4N bytes (8N bytes on a 64-bit machine) - assuming the character objects are shared with similar objects elsewhere in the program (like small integers, Python caches strings of length one in most cases). Stop, said my friend, before you get into negative times - this is fast enough for my program. I agreed, though I had wanted to try one more approach: write the whole function in C. This...

    ...plus $11K+ for travel funding). This seems to have been the result of a series of misunderstandings. The misunderstandings and possible resolutions were discussed. Part of the problem may have been that the Board was not copied in discussions; in future, when dealing with money on behalf of the PSF, the Board should be copied. Also, don't write hypothetically; hedge everything with "if the Board accepts the proposal". The Board agreed that we still need a concrete proposal; no payme...

Kaiser noted (in email) that while gr...

D. Ascher: I also think that there's a problem in that the board is saying we'll do what the membership wants and the membership doesn't really say what they want. The fact is the PSF has no authority on the language, which is what people actually care about. D. Goodger: I started a "Budget & Action Plan", but it needs to be fleshed ou...

BN) In particular, if C is the object class, which has no parents, the linearization is trivial: L[object] = object. However, in general one has to compute the merge according to the following prescription: take the head of the first list, i.e L[B1][0]; if this head is not in the tail of any of the other lists, then add it to the linearizat...
