The only thing I'm lacking in the Engineering requirements is a shipped title, which will be rectified this summer. I don't suppose internship is allowed remotely? =^)
Good luck with the hirings, guys.

I should never read the blogs here as a break from my problem sets. Clearly, being able to modify radix sort so that it still takes linear time with insane inputs isn't a qualification ;)
The warehouse isn't going to be somewhat empty for very long at this rate. Good luck with hiring :)

My alternative title for radix sort is "magic" sort. Take some things, put them in buckets, take them out of the buckets, put them back in the buckets, take them out of the buckets, put them in the buckets, take them out of the buckets, voila, they're sorted!
| Christopher Dapo (Apr 12, 2007 at 07:49 GMT) |
...Most certainly!

I think that's bucket sort ;)

I assure you it is not. Radix sort uses buckets by putting things in and taking them out. Bucket sort uses buckets by putting things in buckets, then sorting the contents of the buckets.
Radix Sort:
Each key is first figuratively dropped into one level of buckets corresponding to the value of the rightmost digit of each key. Each bucket preserves the original order of the keys as the keys are dropped into each bucket. There is a one-to-one correspondence between the number of buckets and the number of values that can be represented by a digit. Then, the process repeats with the next neighboring digit until there are no more digits to process.
Radix sort is my most favoritest sort ever.

Yeah, I know. We call them bins instead of buckets so that we don't get confused. It was supposed to be a joke - the wink was ambiguous there though ;)
| Ben R Vesco (Apr 12, 2007 at 20:22 GMT) |
:p

Like Zac said, if you're a badass, send in your resume anyway. You certainly must meet nearly all the qualifications, but missing one or two or iffy somewhere?...go ahead. Send'em in. This is especially true if you're a wizard with Torque.
