Yesterday I spend about an hour creating the most useless application I’ve ever come up with. The main motivation for this was proving to a friend that solving a certain problem can be achieved with an algorithm containing only 1 loop and 1 if else structure. (And no GoTo’s! :p) It was also a nice opportunity to freshen up my C# skills and mess around a little more with the Beta 2 of Visual Studio 2010.

The application allows to generate a list containing random indexes of that list as values, and with a few special values. The application then allows you to find out whether by following the indexes route, you’ll end up with a special value (and which one), or get into an infinite loop. It also allows to slow down each step, enabling you to track the followed route.
