Some also wander somewhat outside your normal programming topics. Enjoy! G. Wade -- Against logic there is no armor like ignorance. -- Laurence J.

Wade Johnson will give a quick overview of algorithmic complexity and how a basic understanding of the topic can improve your programming. We'll touch on "big-O" notation and how to recognize algorithms that are more complex than necessary. He'll do all of this without advanced math or theory. We will be meeting at the new cPanel offices at 2550 North Loop West, Suite 4006, Houston, Texas 77092 We look forward to seeing you there. G. Wade -- Who knows what email lurks in the hearts of men?
