Vefdagbók Sigurðar

This one’s for the geeks out there. It is a short poem written in PHP, by Martin Alterisio. He describes it thus:

A sad poem of an algorithm where solitude brought excessive use of cpu cycles and memory allocation for redundant data (it copied over and over again the same image till all memory was filled with it)

$timeWaiting = 0;
while (!$you->near($me)) {
	$me->thinkAbout($you);

	switch (true) {
		case $timeWaiting < 5:
			$me->wait($you);
		break;

		case $timeWaiting < 10:
			$me->worry();
		break;

		case $timeWaiting < 20:
			$me->lookFor($you);
		break;

		case $timeWaiting < 40:
			$me->worry();
			$me->lookFor($you);
		break;

		case $timeWaiting < 80:
			$me->worry();
			$me->cry();
			$me->lookFor($you);
			$me->lookFor($you);
			$me->lookFor($you);
		break;

		case $timeWaiting < 160:
			$me->worry();
			$me->cry();
			$me->drink();
			$me->lookFor($you);
			$me->lookFor($you);
			$me->lookFor($you);
			$me->thinkAbout($you);
			$me->thinkAbout($you);
			$me->cry();
			$me->lookFor($you);
			$me->lookFor($you);
			$me->drink();
			$me->drink();
		break;

		default:
			throw new CantLiveWithoutYou();
			die("alone");
	}

	$timeWaiting++;
}

$me->happy = true;
