By: Bill Wagner One of the reasons I love CodeMash is because I great questions from very smart people. This last CodeMash, one of questions was: Is there a way to merge two sequences into a new sorted sequence, assuming that both source sequences are already sort…

By: Chris Marinos I’ve been working on a few different projects over the last few months including some work outside of the .NET space. This has been good for my clients, but not so good for Elevate. Fortunately, I found some time the other day to add a new feature: a pairwise implementation for C#. In F#, the [...]

By: Chris Marinos Today, I was in the process of creating a branch of Elevate to support .NET 4.0 when I came across a subtle, but breaking change in the Enumerable.Count function.

By: Chris Marinos The past few weeks, a few other SRT Solutions developers and I have been working on a new open source library called Elevate.
