* Algorithms v. "The Real World" - One of the CodeRanch Staff met with some 'real world' resistance when using the algorithms he learned as a CS student and asks whether that's normal.

* Developing a queuing mechanism - The why, what, and how are thoroughly explored in this discussion about a creating a high throughput queue.

* Pass by value vs pass by reference - It's a feature that's as old as the hills but it still makes for a good discussion.

* Free Music Resource - This user has been sharing their free high quality music tracks for use in games for over a year now. That's a big thumbs up from us.
