Basic implementation in nim #7

Closed maxgrenderjones closed 9 years ago

maxgrenderjones commented 9 years ago

For my own education, I thought it might be fun to implement the task in nim, a compiles-to-C pythonic-syntax language. After a bit of fiddling (I'm still learning nim) it ends up looking pretty close to the python version, but runs much faster (<6s on my Macbook Pro i5)

Thanks @maxgrenderjones! I'll try to check it out this weekend

Wow this is indeed fast. Thanks @maxgrenderjones.

Hi @maxgrenderjones, Would you be up to adding a README.md to the nim/ folder talking about the implementation?

maxgrenderjones commented 8 years ago

Sure - it's mostly leaning on the python implementation, but should be able to, yes
