The Friendly Tiger
Saturday, October 16, 2004

I've been solving one of ThoughtWorks' coding problems this weekend in order to learn a bit about Tiger. I'm impressed and very relieved. Enums, Autoboxing, Generics, For-Each ... they all work together to remove some of the most awkward idiosyncrasies of Java (from this Perl hacker's humble opinion). I still have more new features to play with...

Dave,

If these are internal-only things, so be it, but if it's possible to pass on examples of the ThoughtWorks coding probems, I'd be curious to see them.

Looking forward to meeting you at AYE, glad that it's worked out this way. I added a couple of questions to your wiki page there, please take a look when you can.

The best way to get your hands on the ThoughtWorks coding problems is to apply to ThoughtWorks and tell 'em Dave sent ya!
