I was thinking of doing an article on anonymous arrays to complement it 
but I haven't thought of a good example yet. I considered LCS, though it

Confusion is the first step of understanding.

Programming is as much about organization and communication
as it is about coding.

The secret to great software:  Fail early & often.

Eliminate software piracy:  use only FLOSS.
