A better algorithm

[razzle]

flames and weak arguments .. this is how you react to any form of debate; I genuinely asked you to explain your idea of "avarage" and why it should supersede its more common statistical meaning, but your aversion to any form of perceived authority sadly won again.

Come on superbonzo.

I just don't buy your single minded idea that probability theory is reality. It isn't. It's just a mathematical tool. And it's not even always called for.

It became so obviously clear in the "escape the waterfront" discussion we had. It can be solved perfectly fine without any probablity theory at all. When you explain why it cannot and that probability theory is necessary I'll listen to you. And please leave that compass out of the explanation will you.

And even in this thread your strict adherance to probability theory has lead you wrong.

YOU CLAIMED THE SPECIFIC INPUT OF THE OP WOULD REVEAL THE AVERAGE COMPLEXITY OF THE ALGORITHM.

This is wrong regardless of the definition of average. You are seriously wrong here superbonzo. Simple as that.

Furthermore, what you call "modern" probability theory it just the same old probability theory only that it has overcome some of it's shortcomings. Please notify me when it has overcome all of its shortcomings will you!
