Greg:

Do not be taken in by this. As a graduate from the world renowned
Department of Computer Sience at Western Michingan University,
(note the "@wmich.edu") let me asure you that this is a rather
common assignment in the "compiler theory" class.

Tell me "HACKER" - Is Dr. Kerstetter still teaching this course?

Pax,
Marin
