winding method work for all polygons! 
the only "downside" is that self intersecting polygon would have holes.. where they self intersect and odd number of times... Which is more or less what people have come to expect....

Make it 3D, you get OctTrees!

Now go implement an AVL Tree.

Now make a visual representation of that AVL tree that shows it rebalancing in realtime.

i might scrap my AVL tree as my B-tree implementation seems to outperform it, which kind of surprised me.

It's probably the rebalancing code that makes it slower on insert. But should be faster on lookup.

Yep. I think it's a good rule of thumb that the more optimized your search algo is, the faster it's search is relative to its inserts (and especially removes!)
What surprised me some about my results is again after 30,000 rows or so if memory serves, the SortedBTreeDictionary was beating out SortedDictionary on inserts AND deletes, not just searches. I was impressed.
Having a much harder time getting my AVL tree working despite the algorithm being simpler. The problem is I was recomputing the heights all the time which made it atrociously slow and the code just didn't want to accept my optimizations. Problems kept coming up. I've finally got it inserting and deleting 10,000,000 rows without much complaint which means I can throw it back into my cheesy little test harness and beat it up. woo.

Good times! I look forward to hearing about your results!

I needed to download JDK 1.8 so I googled for it. Google takes me to Oracle download site. After clicking the download link I have to create an Oracle account which wants Company name and work phone and address, etc.

That actually is where I downloaded it from. Once you check to accept the terms and then click the Hyperlink it then takes you to a login page where you have to login to the Oracle site.

How odd, they must have introduced that recently as I cannot recall having an account, and my updates all happen automatically. I will check more carefully next time I need a later version.

Could Zulu OpenJDK[^] be of any use?

No idea thanks. I don’t know enough about Java. I went ahead and signed up but did not give out the real information so I got the download.

No idea. It's for another product. But thanks.

One of mine is - when dealing with IComparable<T> in .NET
"Greater than is less than"
What it means is
Converting
if(10>5);
to IComparable<T> it reads
if(0<10.CompareTo(5));
Note '>' vs '<'

I have a few.
The popular "if you're doing single line if statements you're doing it wrong."
The equally catchy "only psycho's don't put spaces between their operands and operators."
And my personal favorite "what would codewitch do, do the opposite." 
And one that's not so much related to code, but to specs.
If it'll never happen, it'll happen soon (or it'll never never happen, but people don't tend to understand that one).
