Re: Space Library

[Daniel Calhoun]

I was coding a neighborhood search for an agent moving usually at random
through a toroidal space, with parallel conditions to keep the search from
crossing any X- or Y- boundary.  There were no visible problems, except
that if the agent approached within search distance of the upper Y-boundary
(not any other boundary), an Illegal Operation occurred.  

A coding error seems now to have been found and corrected, but the general
question remains:  was the error concealed as long no attempt was made to
deal with any address beyond the absolute end (therefore Y end) of the
space array?
