About 15 years on, I'm still so happy I got good coursework marks for the route-finding equivalent of a bogosort. Picked a bunch of random routes and pick the fastest. Sure, that guy who set up a neural net to figure it out did well, but mine didn't take days of training, and still did about as well in the same sort of execution time.
