Miscellany

Thursday morning just gone, stumbling downstairs in the dark at twenty to seven, to see the cats sitting at the patio doors, looking out, with the just-past-full moonlight streaming in.

A* in Scala -- would be a fairly mechanical translation of the F# version with probably more explicit type declarations. The F# inference of a numeric type for operator < and + fails, so those operations on generic type B have to be pulled into a Graph[A,B] trait.

A few apples still left on the Bramley, and a lot on the Charles Ross. And this lunchtime, a tortoiseshell butterfly and a fallen leaf lying side by side on the picnic table, looking almost the same at first glance.
