| Oct 6, 2011 at 20:31 | comment | added | Jay Lemmon | I'm not asking to find the bug, I'm asking how you're supposed to handle a specific edge case (the case where you perform $n$ "major cycles" and $\beta = \nullset$) of this algorithm. The algorithm as written in the book doesn't handle it. The proof of termination doesn't seem to either, at least not directly. I don't have an instructor; I'm not in university. Non-students do read textbooks, on occasion. | |

The book sure seems graduate level to me. | |
