quicksort in GP

I tried to translate it to GP using its built-in filter block but i couldn't get it to work, so i ...

san francisco being in lock down mode and me in self quarantine mode (i've had this cold for 3 days), i thought it would be nice to create a quiz maker program that could be set up easily (using a simple CSV) and yet provide filtering by quiz group, instant feedback, score taking, randomized questio...

Rosh Hashanah calculator

there is nothing religious about this post. i'm not jewish but i've always been fascinated by calendars and the formulas behind them. the hebrew calendar is special because its formula evolved from apparent astrological and seasonal observations throughout history and its current form involves a lot...

Excel serial dates conversion in GP

i'm attaching functions for converting Excel serial dates to YMD dates and back. Excel serial dates represents the number of days since 12/31/1899 . Excel has a bug - it treats 1900-2-29 as a leap date when in fact it's invalid, since 1900 is not a leap year. These 2 functions replicate the same beh...
