I don’t think we’ve quite whipped pp Pascal.

Sorry I haven’t got the solutions up yet. I’m under the gun on a  
work deadline and haven’t had time to go through them. I’ll get to  
it sometime tomorrow.

Yes. It has been brought up before. There are issues with it  
though, since the quiz site is maintained by scripts…

Sorry for crouding an already busy thread, but I cannot keep my  
curiosity!  
James are we pulverizing the Ruby Q. admission record with this one?

Here goes the stats so far, and sorry for wgetting all solution pages  
without permission :-O.

1. Quiz # 84: pp Pascal Solutions: 55, Solvers: 52
2. Quiz # 60: Numeric Maze Solutions: 36, Solvers: 34
3. Quiz # 67: metakoans.rb Solutions: 34, Solvers: 34
4. Quiz # 121: Morse Code Solutions: 34, Solvers: 34
5. Quiz # 92: DayRange Solutions: 32, Solvers: 32
6. Quiz # 76: Text Munger Solutions: 32, Solvers: 32
7. Quiz # 14: LCD Numbers Solutions: 31, Solvers: 24
8. Quiz # 93: Happy Numbers Solutions: 29, Solvers: 27
9. Quiz # 63: Grid Folding Solutions: 29, Solvers: 27
10. Quiz # 61: Dice Roller Solutions: 27, Solvers: 27

A suggestion I wanted to make for a while:  
Would it not be appropriate to sort the Quiz Archives on the LHS of  
the page in descending order, having the most recent quizzes on top of  
the page?  
Just an idea of course.

Cheers  
Robert
