perlmeditation MZSanford This is just a simple question, made to provoke thought (so, Meditations seems like a good place) ...<br><br> <H3>What Perl instructor is assinging finite automata problems ?</H3> <sub>and does he know where all of the work is comming from</sub><br><br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I don't usually complain about homew(ork|reck)ers, but i am simply stunned by the number of questions on "finite automata". I would guess people agree by the flaming posts i see in the replies, but i think i am going to take another road, and simply not reply to posts which are on "finite automata", or whatever the homework-of-the-day is. So, rather than flame, i suggest a good olde fasioned <code>--</code> and no replies. After awhile, i would guess the home work questions (the obvious ones anyway) will go away. <HR> <i>"They shall not overcome.
