Alfonso is the winner!

Congratulations to Alfonso Nieto-Castañón, whose impressive breakthrough code lasttry01 pulled ahead of the crowd in the final minutes. MikeR was clever enough to know that Alfonso had a good chance of slipping into the lead, and he was lucky enough to have the computer run just a little bit faster when he resubmitted Alfonso’s code, but since it’s an exact clone (take a look at the official diff between lasttry01 and A27), we have no qualms about awarding the grand prize to Alfonso. Well done!

Thanks everyone for playing, and we look forward to seeing you next time.

Wrap code fragments inside <pre> tags, like this:

<pre class="code">
a = magic(3);
sum(a)
</pre>

If you have a "<" character in your code, either follow it with a space or replace it with "&lt;" (including the semicolon).
