About

Glad you asked, ever present, hypothetical reader! I came up with "The Roger-Moore Algorithm" purely by accident. I was sitting in my Data Structures and Algorithm II exam in May 2009 looking back over my answers. I realised that while answering a question on the Boyer–Moore string search algorithm I had written "...the Roger-Moore algorithm...". Needless to say I corrected my mistake but I was sort of impressed at this occurrence of my brain's innate ability to not pay attention when necessary so I decided I'd use the name somewhere so I changed the name of my blog to "The Roger-Moore Algorithm".
