Circular Buffer exercise #153

Closed glennj closed 2 years ago

closes #124

Give me your opinion about including this one. It pushes what's (IMO) practical to do in awk, although the code itself is not too complicated. It has an awkward interface, having to pass a result array as a parameter.

I gave it a very high difficulty which may not be warranted.

It doesn't look difficult ... but it does seem a bit convoluted. I'd question if this is worth adding to the track, given that this is pretty out of line awk's paradigm.

Fair enough. I'll close this PR and create one to forego this exercise.

I pushed my feature branch upstream so this work can remain for posterity/curiosity.
