11:02 schestowitz; <p>An old saying goes that that the natural data structure for any problem is an array and if it is not, then change the problem so that it is. This turned out very much to be the case in this problem. The document is an array of variants (section, paragraph, scene change etc). Text is an array of words (split at whitespace) which get processed into output, which is an array of formatted lines. Each line is an

You get the environmental and performance benefits of electricity, with the same refueling convenience as you get with ICE vehicles.
