This episode presents two somewhat more advanced examples in DCS. They are Harper's continuation-based regular-expression matcher, and Bird's quickmin, which finds the least natural number not in a given list of distinct natural numbers, in linear time. I explain these examples in detail and then discuss how they are implemented in DCS, which ensures that they are terminating on all inputs.
