Thank you Christian! I would have looked at this for days and not caught the '<=' issue.
Well deserved then :-D , unless you are doing this as a learning experience or plan to roll such code in an intensive math computing environment, you are picking the wrong language. python or ruby will do the trick just fine.
C is never the wrong language. It is the tasks that are wrong :) ;)
Add Tcl to the list of alternatives.
And shell. The bash shell is an incredibly powerful programming language and very easy to debug. It used to be, in Bourne-days, that large shell programs were unwieldy and slow. I found that I'd have to turn to perl to get performance. Not now. These days I see perl as being unwieldy for most of what I have to deal with. Unless Its GUI-fied (yes, Tcl wins!) then the more complex things need Ruby. It just seems to make complexity vanish. Despite all that's said the Object extensions to Perl (5) are a kludge. Ocaml?
