I have often been surprised at the lack of an algorithms library in boost. There has often been times I've wished for a guarded or unguarded insertion sort, or riffle shuffle. Is his lack just down to no-one stepping forward to help write and maintain such a library of algorithms?
Seems like it
I seem to recall that at BoostCon this year, there was a push to extend the algorithm support in Boost as part of the Library in a Week program. Did anything significant come of that?
There's some stuff in the sandbox (some of which I wrote), but as far as I know, none has come up for review. I'm hoping to get off my duff and write some docs and get some of it reviewed before this year's BoostCon. -- -- Marshall Marshall Clow Idio Software <mailto:marshall@idio.com> It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.
