That, in and of itself, isn't really noteworthy as it's a fairly common programming problem.What really sets this site apart is how completely it solves the problem. As of this writing, there were 108 different solutions to the problem. The languages included range from Ada to Zsh and include such oddities as Oberon, Rebol, Brain and a particularly obfuscated sed script.You'll also find more common languages from C, C++, C# and Java to Perl, Pascal and PHP. The breadth of solutions provided is impressive to say the least.If you're a "language" connoisseur, this isn't a site to miss. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=79602 The focus of this work is to develop fully integrated systems using Linux. The books covers topics such as servers, C programming, SQL databases, networking and serial communication, robotics, CNC machines, vision systems, etc. Tutorials are included. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=82446 A wide variety of computer security issues, articles and help.
