Cool Stuff With Numbers

I’m going to take the moment to write that I really should have spent sleeping.

Work at the store has been a bit stressful the last two nights. Kim is on vacation, and Ronda has been falling behind a bit. It’s not really Ronda’s fault, as Kim really doesn’t care to take the time and train her. Kim will schedule Ronda maybe one day a week. She’s really doing her best, and considering that she’s never had to do claims alone, I think she’s doing a fine job. It’s just messy as hell in that office, though. I stayed late tonight (as I did last night) to get things pretty clean and left Ronda some direction, since she seems to be a bit frustrated with the whole situation.

I did the coolest thing with numbers today. I was trying to write an algorithm to renumber a number line in a database (with identification numbers also attached) such that the fewest possible queries were executed. Instead of executing the renumbering in n queries, I did it in three; this works for any sequential number line of any size. I’m quite proud of it, but I need to test it a bit more as well as get the queries in order to show it. I love it when I can do cool stuff with numbers.
