Learning is such an remarkable experience. You mean I can really transform a little subsection of the world's knowledge from frustratingly incomprehensible gobbledygook into a pellucid demonstration of the underlying structure of reality, and all by "mere" time and effort?
Incredible, no notes.
#original#this post inspired by teaching myself ukkonen's algorithm for suffix tree generation#by painstakingly implementing the algorithm line by line only when I grokked what it was doing#and when I first looked at the wikipedia pages for suffix arrays and lcp arrays and couldn't make the slightest sense of them#and now it's just... a straightforward explanation of stuff
