Here's a "trie-fecta" for you: a Trie class written in Java. The Trie can be used to efficiently store key/value pairs when the keys are known to be character strings.
I've strived to create high-quality code in this class library, including proper javadoc and unit testing. Please let me know if I've missed anything, or something differs from what you would expect from a high-quality Java library. Click here to check out my Trie.
Scooby Snacks for the Senses December 28th, 2008 - 4:45 PM CST
I've got some new treats for your eyes and ears. Firstly, a new Weird Al video (and one of my favorites): Amish Paradise!
Next, I have to come out of the litter box. That's right, I admit it. I'macatperson. There are now two new videos for you cat-fans here and here.
Finally, an awesome cover of Sir Mix-A-Lot's Baby Got Back by Grasshopper Takeover in the Audio section.
Oh, and I also added a new feature to the Dynamic Update block at the bottom of each page. Click on the drop-down box there and select Newest BrettBits Polls. This will show (surprise!) the latest polls submitted to BrettBits Polls. This also allows you to see, at a glance, how many votes each poll has as well as whether or not you have voted on that poll. Awesome-town!
Do you find that when you purchase a new computer, a hard drive, an MP3 player, or a memory card for your camera, your device tells you that you actually have less total capacity than was advertised? There's a reason for that.
I've written a concise explanation as to why that happens. Read all about it here!

The two most common words in the English language are "the" followed by "of". During Canada Day celebrations, the most commonly used words are "Whoo" followed by "WHOOOOOOO!". Fascinating.
