I haven't looked into it in years, but would the inverse of a block bi-diagonal matrix have some semiseperable structure? Maybe that would be good to look into?

That's because it was an X11 thing, and everyone used X11.

That is also the one good thing about Window's commandline, you use right click there to copy and paste which is nice. The rest sucks.

I don't really love this solution since it runs into all the usual linked list issues, and is only 'allocation free' in the sense that the pointers are allocated with the structure if doing the intrusive thing they are talking about. Using the std::vector of pointers approach isn't going to be using crazily more memory.

Myself, I like to just allocate a too big block and shove everything into that then deal with indicies into that array if I care about performance. you can even flatten the tree in a way to get better locality if you care about that.

I would really like to see more testing with a deeper hierarchy and alpha and beta nonzero.

Does it? If I draw a naked stick figure with boobs and say it is 14, is that morally wrong? At what point should a person care? Their point is that a drawing doesn't hurt people right?

I just don't like having to send HTML and have the backend deal with what are really frontend problems. Sending JSON is great since you can serialize most reasonable data types into it and then the backend has no responsibility for how it is rendered which helps for having mobile apps use the same backend as the website. Sending HTML just seems nuts since if you change your design you would have to change the backend too.
