Took me about half an hour to grasp, not even being "CS grad" (nor
whathever "grad" FWIW). By that time, I had a couple monthes working
experience with VB, and had learned (but never seriously used) bits of
C, C++, Java and Pascal.
It took me about a half a second to grasp the "named bins" concept --
Oh yes ? With all it's implications ? Fine, you're way smarter than I'm
- or, as it seems, you were much more experimented and CS-litterate that
I was by that time.
But that was not the point. What I meant is that a concept that takes
less than an hour to grasp for a newbie self-taught programmer with no
previous exposure to the concept should by no mean be a problem for a CS
graduate.
