I allready have a simple quick-n-dirty implementation running
on our local mysql servers (using spades instead of pigeons), 
so it shouldn't be too difficult to phase this development 
into the main cvs-trunk later.

The only problem I wasn't yet able to resolve reliably
is to store the three possible values into one bit, hence
I'm using two bits for the decision logic and call this
three-valued boolean storage unit a 'peck'. But it's my 
feeling, that there must be better a solution; after all 
if a qbit can hold 4 values (as modern physics says), why 
shouldn't a peck be able to mark 3 possibilities (or even
4 if you count 'not-yet-pecked' as the fourth).

Working on it.

RE: PigeonRank?

2002-04-01 Thread Land, Christopher


How about using the state transitions, i.e.

0 - 1  state changed, no error
0/1 - 0/1  state unchanged, no error
1 - 0  state changed, overflow

Re: PigeonRank

2002-04-01 Thread Colin Faber

Who knows with google... ;-)

Though I do like Michael's 'peck' 'not-yet-pecked' system.

I question though how much more performance we could get out of Rats
rather than Winged Rats.
