Greg's Stop Loss Kata
Greg's Stop Loss Kata
Testing is very hard when time is involved ...
A trailing stop loss is a term used in financial trading. For a very in depth explanation you can read here http://www.investopedia.com/articles/trading/03/080603.asp and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_(exchange)#Stop_orders
However we do not need a huge amount of background in order to do the kata as we are going to limit the problem a bit.
The general idea is that when you buy into a stock at a price say $10. You want it to automatically get sold if the stock goes below $9 (-$1). If we use the term "trailing" that means that id the price goes up to $11 then the sell point becomes $10.

Stevey's Google Platforms Rant

I was at Amazon for about six and a half years, and now I've been at Google for that long. One thing that struck me immediately about the two companies -- an impression that has been reinforced almost daily -- is that Amazon does everything wrong, and Google does everything right. Sure, it's a sweeping generalization, but a surprisingly accurate one. It's pretty crazy. There are probably a hundred or even two hundred different ways you can compare the two companies, and Google is superior in all but three of them, if I recall correctly. I actually did a spreadsheet at one point but Legal wouldn't let me show it to anyone, even though recruiting loved it.

I mean, just to give you a very brief taste: Amazon's recruiting process is fundamentally flawed by having teams hire for themselves, so their hiring bar is incredibly inconsistent across teams, despite various efforts they've made to level it out. And their operations are a mess; they don't real

Greg Young's Probability Kata
Value objects are an important concept in DDD. This kata is made both to learn value objects and to learn better ways of testing.
Write a probability value object. It should contain the following methods:
Probability CombinedWith(Probability)
Probability InverseOf()
Probability Either(Probability)
if you forget your probability math:
Either:P(A) + P(B) - P(A)P(B)
CombinedWith: P(A)P(B)

Updated clojure-clr WPF celcius example
; A CLR port of http://bestinclass.wordpress.com/2009/09/24/chaos-theory-vs-clojure/
; Updated to use Rich Hickey's changes: http://paste.lisp.org/display/87799
;
; A WPF app is fired up in another thread. Anything you type in the REPL
; is dispatched to the WPF thread and evaluated there.
;
; Requires the following addition to ClojureCLR's GenDelegate.cs:
; public static Delegate CreateFunc(IFn fn)
; {
; Type delegateType = typeof(Func<>).MakeGenericType(new Type[] { typeof(object) });
