PHP Programming Contest
I just committed my code for the The PHP-Programming-Contest. But I'm not really happy about it. First of all I thought I will do it in an hour, and really after an hour the first version worked. But I had a lot of performance problem and I had to switch the wordlist from a wikipedia based one to an other one. It took me some hours at the end. I'm also not happy about the performance, I took my already implemented breadth-first algorithm. But after all solving this problem this way it's just to slow, I'd rather should take a A* star search algorithm.
But now I just committed my code. It's realy short (beyond 100 LoC without the search algorithm) and not bad programmed (even the userinterface isn't there to win a beauty contest). And I really wonder if some other programmers commit such a crap like I did or if there are only smart-ass-coder that committed some code.
