I'm sure they'll get it fixed soon
after many otherwise intelligent sounding suggestions that achieved nothing the nice folks at Technet said the only solution was to low level format my hard disk then reinstall my signature. Sadly, this still didn't fix the issue!

So for I don't know, a week? I've been working on optimizing a finite automota powerset construction algorithm to work with unicode ranges without breaking it.
The "without breaking it" bit has me in fits. I've tried two different ways of tackling it on my own, and that worked until it didn't at which point I ripped a technique off from another library, and that I thought worked, again, until it didn't.
So now I'm just gutting the engine out of GPLEX and using that as the heart of Rolex.
Screw it. I know a wall when I hit one.
Now I just have to get the Gplex code torn down, retooled and slangified. No small feat. Harder in fact then if i had just gotten the above working.

aren't you glad we don't build bridges and skyscrapers?
Honestly though, my issue surprisingly isn't a testing issue so much as a design issue. My algo is Wrong(TM).
The trouble is, I can't seem to find the Right(TM) way to do it.

Is it a matter of coding this the correct way (Right(TM)) or just getting it to work correctly, without the almost bit?
Your title says "almost" so I am guessing it does not work correctly. I would get it to work correctly, then refactor if possible to make it the Right(TM) way?
good luck

It's not that simple though. I do have a working version. It takes hours to generate the tables once you introduce unicode ranges.
And refactoring it isn't really the solution, since it's an algorithm change that is in order in order to fix that, which means the code has to work different, not simply be organized different, if that makes sense.
The Right(TM) way in this case refers to the correct implementation of the algorithm. There is one, and its derivatives. I just don't know how to find it.

In code, almost working is the same as not working.
But I agree with others, get it working first and then optimize. Whenever I have tried to do both at the same time I have always run into nasty troubles.

That shouldn't be a problem, because, according to the APHINA English Dictionary, a near miss is a hit.
