Quite often we come across a requirement where we may need to perform some sort of fuzzy string grouping or data correlation. For example, we may want to correlate the customer records of a database by identifying records that are similar but not necessarily exactly the same (due to spelling mistakes for example). Obviously a simple group by, will not successfully group such data. We will need to employ what is commonly referred to as a distance algorithm or a string metric in order to determine how close 2 string values are.

Want to know what I think the next UI breakthroughs will be? Here are two, both of which can be considered a return to fundamentals: 1. Command line languages; 2. Physicality: the return to physical devices, where we control things by physical body movement, by turning, moving, and manipulating appropriate mechanical devices.

Etoys has become a great branch of Squeak (it branched from 3.8, but in the course of its development for OLPC, it has gained some nice fonts and a nice toolbar, among other things.) It behaves in a slightly more mainstream way, in that Etoys users no longer save the Etoys images, just save the project file (which is referred to in help as "Keep a current project"). The Squeak image itself restarts pristine and untouched each time it is restarted. \n\nSqueakers and developers who want to save their whole image (window positions, preferences, the lot, in classic Smalltalk style) will want the save command in the World menu. Bert Freudenberg explains where the World menu is hidden.

The nursery rhyme looks familiar, but how realistic is it? Smalltalk and Self appear at first glance to be in danger of this kind of horror, especially Smalltalk where every object has a class, yet a Smalltalk statement consists largely of verbs. Yegge seems to have missed an important detail in his analogy - verbs are not functions - they are symbols (selectors) that resolve to a function (method) when they are looked up (depending on ... whatever - Smalltalk the class of the receiver, CLOS the types of the arguments and so on). C and FORTRAN don't have verbs, they just have functions (actions).

Visual T# is a new generation unit testing tool with it's own language where testing concepts become first-class constructs.

In software engineering, the singleton pattern is a design pattern that is used to restrict instantiation of a class to one object. This is useful when exactly one object is needed to coordinate actions across the system. The concept is sometimes generalized to systems that operate more efficiently when only one object exists, or that restrict the instantiation to a certain number of objects (say, five). Some consider it an anti-pattern, judging that it is overused, introduces unnecessary limitations in situations where a sole instance of a class is not actually required, and introduces global state into an application.
