A quick update on API refactorings! Here is a snapshot of what the code examined in the last post would look like with refactorings and improvements I have made so far: Before: the code examined in the last post After: For segmenting streams into, say, words for example, one could also use something like SED on GNU/Linux, some regular expressions implementation of a programming language or whatever.
