(Don't tell anyone, but I plan to rewrite it.)

This doesn't compile:

string[] words = split(strip(line));

it has to be

string[] words = split(strip(line.idup));


I like the way you write, it's amusing. And most of the time, you explain things well. But many of the code examples you provide
don't compile or don't give correct results (I also had this problem
with the Dr. Dobbs article). That makes me wonder if you actually test them or just write them off the top of your head?

Apologies for the low quality of code samples. I've recently wrote a script that extracts all snippets from the book, compiles them and runs them automatically, and possibly compare output against the expected output.

Currently not all snippets can compile. Walter and I are working on that. I'll add the necessary warning in the next TDPL draft.

Thanks for letting me know about the strip problem.
