Ooooh, I'm sorry Doctor Anonymous, I can't compare to your knowledge. Knowing Java's shitty string library is that shitty because it's implemented with an uppercase good thing makes it worth being slow.
Nevermind I could use one of the hundred string libraries freely available for C, which offer O(1) or similar complexity for most operations; or Perl strings, which are also inherently better than your Good Thing. But disregard this, Factory Classes are so Goth they Shit Bats.
BTW, it's lame to be using the standard library strings in C. What's your experience with the language, Doctor Anonymous?
