About
Welcome to my blog!
My name is Eyal Schneider. I have a B.Sc. in Computer science, and I am an enthusiastic Java programmer for more than 10 years now :)
I suppose that most of my posts will be suitable for intermediate or advanced Java developers. I will focus mainly on the Java language, its libraries and best practices, and less on Java frameworks and technologies.
Your comments/corrections to my posts are welcome – share your knowledge with others and me.

Hi Eyal,
Thank you very much for all your posts and help. I am writing because I came across a stackoverflow answer of yours regarding a rush hour puzzle algorithm here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2877724/rush-hour-solving-the-game I was intrigued by your comment on using A* search over BFS with some nice improvements in state space. I am a student working on an algo implementation to solve a rush hour puzzle (not generate) for a group project. I was tempted to implement the bfs implementation mentioned in the answer in GO but I am very interested in seeing the implementation you came up with if you still have it laying around!
