    How often we see "so how does that work, exactly?" when someone posts an up-to-date solution to their tricky problem. Try explaining this algorithm in the remaining 3 minutes of your lunch break!

    Thanks Jeff for taking the time to write - for a brilliant algorithm - an equally brilliant explanation. Bookmarked.

    I sure do appreciate that kind of feedback, Chris. I guess "how it works" is what made things like the Tally Table article so popular in it's day. I didn't invent it... I just 'splained it. 😀

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
