I decided to solve a few more problems. After I used Smalltalk on 104, I entered into the thick of a bunch of annoying problems that are all very closely related, which is supposed to be convenient because you can reuse code, but isn't convenient for me. I found some languages to solve these problems. I solved 105 in Swift (which was a pain to setup...) and I solved 106 in Typescript (which I am willing to call it's own language even if it's basically just annotated Javascript). Then I decided to try something off the wall, and I solved problem 50 using exclusively C++ Template Metaprogramming. My solution actually causes gcc to segfault when run on the necessary input size, but I decided that it was logically sound enough to let be. Now I have freed up postscript, which should be a reasonable enough language to try to do some stuff moving forward with.

Solved a problem, possibly moving off of blog
I obviously haven't written much on this blog in a very long time. But I decided to go back and actually solve another problem today. I used a simple Awk script to solve problem 13, and in turn used Smalltalk to solve problem 104. I would not say Smalltalk is anywhere close to my favorite language, but it wasn't the worse to use.
Because my code highlighting tool broke and I probably won't have thee enthusiasm to maintain this blog, going forward I will probably only make changes to the github page for this project, https://github.com/drsam94/PELC , where a less-broken and up-to-date table with easy links to all the problems will be posted.
