Geek Challenges: Geek Prize Challenge Results
by: bb - 2005-03-12 12:00:39
So you've had a month to work on it, We hope you all enjoyed the challenge. The quality of solutions was outstanding and the turnout, quite amazing.

Solutions were extremely varied, from bubuche93 who used a real phone to those using mIRC script or functional programming languages. Mathman19 posed some interesting questions about the alien race, keoki put his mind to work rather than his PC to work and muzzy chipped in with helpful hints and suggestions as to how solution could be improved upon.

Geek Challenges: A Poem to entertain Level 1 Geeksters
by: dimport - 2003-06-21 07:19:46
There once was a guy from the States
Who really found something he hates

Led to so much frustration
He finds it easier to sit and read Yates!
