The dumb fscking troll needs something to ridiculously twist into
something absurd, in order to a perfectly reasonable and correct
advocate as an "idiot" or something.  

I mean, what kind of fscking jackasshole could post such idiocy as in
my sig?  Seriously!  (Note to stupid, asshole trolls: My calling it
idiocy does *not* mean I think that "the opposite" is true.  Sheesh.)

Fortunately for the dumb fsck, his lies and assholery are 100%
"Ezekiel" approved.

to determine if the code functions correctly. You're one of the few
idiots who thinks otherwise."  -  DumFSck

Good self-nuke, moron.

Repetitive in that it will be run more than once or a few times?  Yes.

Not sure what you mean by preliminary sampling, but if it means loading 
all 500K rows into memory to build a BST, it's not an option I'm 
interested in.

I have constraints in place I don't want to violate - retrieving 500K 
rows from a server is a major violation.

I don't care about existing tools.  I want to write a new, efficient one 
that accounts for the restrictions I listed.

It naturally follows from your previous dumb-fuck behavior.

A sampling is a sampling is a sampling ...

When you "sample" a dish of lasagna, do you eat the whole fucking
thing?

A "sampling" is a standard term and has a standard meaning.

Furthermore, the absolute best way to do this is by using
the unparalleled tools of GNU/Linux.

But you turned it into a fucked-up thing.  How do I 'preliminarily 
sample' 500,000 rows of data?  What does that even mean?

As long as that tool is written by me in python (preferably 2.7x or 
later) on Windows.

nah... right now it's eternal-september.

But I am toying with writing my own barebones GUI newsreader.

As I recall, you said you wrote your own reader.  What does it look like?

Hehe.  As I recall, Relf's "newsreader" program is actually a Monopoly
game program, among various other "useful" features.  A cluster-fsck
of biblical proportions.

Explain EVERY SINGLE MUSIC MANAGEMENT PROGRAM in Linux then. Those are
