Re: [spam][crazy][log] idea: relearning to write code

[Undiscussed Groomed for Male Slavery, One Victim of Many]

this is cool to me:

        # a stack to perform a depth-first enumeration of the tree
        #           index      stream offset  index offset  region size
        indices = [(self.tail, 0,             0,            total_size)]

I didn't realise i was traversing the tree in a depth-first manner
until I wrote the comment.

Studying depth-first traversal implementations would likely simplify
this problem for me.
