This was, by far, the most painful part of some of my classes.

This was back in '98, as the rushing sound made by the dot-com bubble
was filling everyone's ears, and complete idiots were managing to
muddle through CS courses and get to the upper-division classes,
simply out of their desire to cash in.

When I was teaching computer science at UCSD one of my unwritten
functions was to filter out the complete idiots.  But I got finessed
out of that position around 1987.
