# CGLib - Coding Game Library

This is a small library of functions/objects that have already proven

useful for me in solving some of the problems in [CodingGame][CG].

The code is not particularly robust nor readable. Actually, the design

follows the following guidelines:

- aim for easy cut-and-paste, as I often just include functions in the

  solutions (which boil down to a single file anyway)

- privilege compactness where possible

- do only minimal parameters checking, assume that the usage will be

  "correct". This is a valid assumption while solving problems in [CG][]

  where you retain full control

- avoid `Carp`/`croak` even if useful. This is again in the spirit of

  easier cut-and-paste, even though `croak` is actually the best option

  inside a library instead of `die`

- use `Exporter` - its presence does not get in the way of easy

  copy-pasting anyway

A lot of the code would not be here were it not for the excellent courses

on Algorithms by Robert Sedgewick and Kevin Wayne as found on Coursera.

Their [mini-site][algs4] about the book is invaluable.

happy to receive updates if you find bugs or do useful additions, just

use [the GitHub repository][cglib-perl].
