    It’s like following a pattern to get the right answer at the end or in my case, not.<laugh>

    Might have a few blemishes on the shaft and a bit of funky coloured weeping from the head for a couple of weeks.

    But I think a course of penicillin sorts it right out

    Hmm I reckon todays weather could be said to be the understood by an algorithm..

    The factors that produce today's weather, are many, wind, clouds, moon, sun etc and more increasingly quote obviously human pollution. Clever folk put all these factors into a model, by using past history try and extrapolate the future.

    Another example, a factor if my life is that I am a Sunderland supporter, a father and grandfather and play golf, knowing these factors my actions could be predicted etc a clever clogs could work out an algorithm

    Clear as mud... you do not need an algorithm as you are already living in one.
