Fun tidbits: a) I bombed, like, 6 coding interviews whilst writing this article. Two of them were related to string processing, too, which I thought was funny. (In a depressingly ironic kind of way.) No point, other than I seemingly suck at the "leetcode" coding interview style companies seem to rely upon these days.

And b) there are at least two Easter eggs in this post that no-one seems to have noticed.

Oh, and c) perk of religiously keeping line length to <= 80 characters... the code is surprisingly readable on mobile devices!



So you’re looking for a job then?
