On the one hand, I confess my documentation was absolutely terrible where it existed at all (today I believe I could do much better, I've had practice explaining things more completely and simply as a TA for CMPUT 101 and tend to get fairly positive reviews), but also these students were almost always freshman who had only just taken their first CS class. My approach to indexing game-states relied heavily on dynamic programming as well as results from combinatorics and generating functions and most of these students had just taken freshman calculus and hadn't expected to be doing any math. | On the one hand, I confess my documentation was absolutely terrible where it existed at all (today I believe I could do much better, I've had practice explaining things more completely and simply as a TA for CMPUT 101 and tend to get fairly positive reviews), but also these students were almost always freshman who had only just taken their first CS class.

I made a minor change to the m-script for the issymmetric function. I also created a significant patch to the find-function which consolidates all the many implementations into one templatized function. This fixes a couple separate bugs/matlab incompatibilities (find(sparse(0,0)), find(sparse(0,1)) etc. all work the same, six or more return values doesn't cause Octave to crash). Additionally, I added a fourth parameter for specifying the desired dimension of the output vector: http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?8386 | I made a minor change to the m-script for the issymmetric function: http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?41426.
