Colin,
Your profile tells you are from Sydney like Michael.
What a coincidence.

What are you talking about?
The only person here who "jumped on" anyone was Michael. Even after
Michael was rude, no one did anything other than explain why his response
was rude and why the original reply from Pavel was as helpful and useful
as one should expect, given a question of the form Michael provided.
Regardless, most of us are reading this newsgroup via a Usenet news
server. There's no "profile" to look at, nor should a person's profile
make any difference with respect to whether they are "jumped on" or not.
Michael should not have jumped on Pavel, with or without Pavel having a
profile to view.
It's possible that Michael, being in a position where for whatever reason
he is simply writing code for someone else, incorrectly assumed that in
this forum, the goal is for others to simply write code for people asking
questions.
But, having incorrect expectations is no excuse for his rude response.
Pete

Hmm
I'm starting to think Michael was right for some members of this
group. As for the Sydney bit - pure coincidence, never met him. Think
he has a bit of the brashness associated with youth but the meak and
mild generally get trodden on.
As the Americans like to say, "Have a nice day!" whether they mean it
or not. When an Australian says it he usually means the opposite.
I'm sure there are a few good souls in this group who are intrigued by
what it's all about. It's simply a bit of code to achieve something in
the fastest time. The undoubted master is John Rawson who does it in
0.2 sec whether the set has 1 block or 163 in C++. There is absolutely
nothing commercial about this - totally recreational. However, I must
warn you combinatorics is addictive, so says Tony Crilly.
You can post your better solution here in C# of course.

And I'm starting to think you haven't even bothered to read any of the
messages in this thread.
Michael is the only person who has posted anything even remotely
inflammatory. I don't know exactly what you think Michael "was right"
about, but if by that you mean he was right that no one here was willing
to just write his code for him, guilty as charged. But what obligation do
any of us have to just up and do the work for any random person who shows
up here? It's certainly nothing for you or Michael to get your shorts in
a twist about.
Pete

The answer to the question of why not many women are represented in
these groups is that some of the "men" are just too girlie, girlie.
(Sorry Gov.) Now, go and get hysterical with one of your dolls. No
spanking though, dolls have rights!

Huh? Women avoid the newsgroups because too many people in the newsgroups
act like women?
No wonder you need help with your code.

I don't need help with my code; I do it myself even if it takes
longer. This way I don't have to put up with naive, over-reactive
people who try to hide their inadequacies with a strident outburst of
frothy, banelness. Your attributing of wants, views etc to others
shows an illogicalness that cannot be reconciled with a competent
programmer.
There is not one line of code in this thread by you; why do I think
that is pretty normal for your involvement in this group?
Being such an immature chappy I realize you have to have the last
word. I came to this group by accident; I leave it with thanks to
Jesse and an advice that your puerile expected reply will not be
viewed by me.

You said basically the same thing the previous post. Are you "leaving the
building" or not?

What Peter says makes sense - Forums are meant to help people, but ppl
should not abuse the system.
"Show what you have attempted, before asking for help" is a rule of
thumb most forums follow.
I came to this thread, because I was trying to do the same thing as
Micheal (read text file into array). I found enuf free code on the Net
and the hints given in the first reply are good enuf, even for a newbie
C# guy like me.
And the long mail from Peter (very subtle, but to the point) was a very
nice way of pointing out the "right way" to Micheal, to use the forum.
Peter needs to be appreciated for putting in so much effort. Great work,
Peter.
