A Second Try at Refactoring Dijkstra's Example

If you compare my code with Dijkstra's original solution, you will see that in an odd way they are nearly logical duals of each other.

Simple Digital

It seemed a waste to put an I/O board in the system just for one switch closure reading.

CRC: The C Stands for Confusion

Because it is so often abstracted, people don't always make smart choices about selecting and specifying CRCs.

Java's Floating-Point (Im)Precision

Java doesn't store, calculate, or return the exact representation of the actual floating-point value in some cases.

Dijkstra's Example Simplified By Off-The-End Values: First Try

By keeping Dijkstra's strategy the same, but describing the ranges more consistently, the resulting program is easier to understand.
