Hi,
it's sunday, time to do some serious research: Topic today:
Order of Urinals algorithm.

(The Order of Urinals is the algorithm all men implicitly and subconsciously use upon entering a bathroom to determine which urinal to use. Also known as .universal toilet selection algorithm.)

Right now the implementation is WIP, but this snippet confuses me .
"IF U = U_t THEN error()" ?
Is that when you get confused and accidentally pee on another guy?

Hello Bjoern

Interesting topic,but your "on the job" observations to check to algorithm could present problems

Hi Al,
thanks,more brain food... the real stuff for nerds and immeasurably bizarre persons smiling smiley

beside that, these kind of algorithms are solving real world problems.f.i. Where to place emergency exits ?: But heh, we want some fun, no ?
