On 16 Feb 2000 14:08:54 -0600, the infinitely wise William Annis
(annis at biostat.wisc.edu) spoke forth to us, saying...

[snip...]
>class memoize:
>    def __init__(self, fn):
>        self.fn = fn
>        self.args = {}
>
>    def __call__(self, *args):
>        if not self.args.has_key(args):
>            self.args[args] = apply(self.fn, args)
>        return self.args[args]

This is gold. Thank you!

P.S. Count me in as another who goes out and buys the Perl Journal on
a regular basis, even though my heart lies elsewhere. Its the closest
thing I've found to a useful sort of "algorithms monthly" magazine
that is actually written in something approaching English.

Perl-is-arcane-at-times-but-it-beat-math-notationly your's, Alan.
