Rework "Model" class to use better encapsulation, less integer IDs #174

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I think originally I used IDs for strings to avoid string copying. This was a 
bit misguided, as string copying isn't really a big part of WaitZar's 
performance anyway.

Also, adding in things like symbols and pat-sint words (which have different 
_displays_ depending on where they're shown) really complicated the whole 
thing, leading (possibly) to a bug in Burglish.

We should really abstract a "candidate" into a class, to avoid all this array 
nonsense. Then, it'd be much easier to add/sub candidates. We should also use 
this class wherever possible, instead of relying on IDs (which cause similar 
errors to pointers if not managed correctly.)
