Yea, and 1+1 = what ever the engineer or the business requirements want it to be, right?
Once again it depends. What base are we working in? Are we working in some kind of odd algebraic space? 1+1 only equals 2 in specific situations.
Well, it's really the metric of the space you're in. That is, how you are going to measure things. :-)
This is engineering, not art class. There are ways to evaluate solutions as being better than others.
This is computer science, not engineering. There are considerations for one approach over another not necessarily confined to your idea of "efficiency". The problem encompasses time, space, economics, and any number of other dimensions.
Most people put programming nearer to literature, art and mathematics then to physics and mechanic. So I would say that we are closer to an art class then to a class of engineering. :-D -- select 'mmarques' || '@' || 'unl.edu.ar' AS email; --------------------------------------------------------- Martín Marqués | Programador, DBA Centro de Telemática | Administrador Universidad Nacional del Litoral ---------------------------------------------------------
