CGLib - Coding Game Library

This is a small library of functions/objects that have already proven useful for me in solving some of the problems in CodingGame.

The code is not particularly robust nor readable. Actually, the design follows the following guidelines:

• aim for easy cut-and-paste, as I often just include functions in the solutions (which boil down to a single file anyway)
• privilege compactness where possible
• do only minimal parameters checking, assume that the usage will be "correct". This is a valid assumption while solving problems in CG where you retain full control
• avoid Carp/croak even if useful. This is again in the spirit of easier cut-and-paste, even though croak is actually the best option inside a library instead of die
• use Exporter - its presence does not get in the way of easy copy-pasting anyway

A lot of the code would not be here were it not for the excellent courses on Algorithms by Robert Sedgewick and Kevin Wayne as found on Coursera. Their mini-site about the book is invaluable.

As an extension, I will not take offense if you just copy-paste the parts you need when solving puzzles in CodingGame. I would be happy to receive updates if you find bugs or do useful additions, just use the GitHub repository.
