Somebody recently requested an answer from me to do solve a problem in C++ (which did turn out to be homework) on SO, so instead of answering it, I gave a trivial four line (and much easier to read) solution in Julia ;-) (and said that was an example of why I no longer wanted to program in C++!) (somebody else had already given a Python solution - it was nice to see that the Julia solution was simpler than the Python version)
