Yeah, that would be super cool.<br>
Programming strategy and algorithms are great topics.<br>

science and I've been working on a Solver for this game. It's
a fun exercise in Dijkstra that really gives you both a
breadth first and depth first appreciation of the problem

<div>Anyway, I'm thinking of putting together a talk regarding
the solution I'm working on, some background on solving these
sorts of problems, and then some time for discussion on how we
could improve the efficiency of my implementation.</div>

<div>I don't think I'll have it ready in time for January's
meeting but if there is interest February is certainly
doable. Sound like fun?</div>
