• Given a word, how do I get the list of all words, that differ by one letter?

  - by user187809

  Let's say I have the word "CAT". These words differ from "CAT" by one letter (not the full list) CUT CAP PAT FAT COT etc. Is there an elegant way to generate this? Obviously, one way to do it is through brute force. pseduo code: while (0 to length of word) while (A to Z) replace one letter at a time, and check if the resulting word is a valid word If I had a 10 letter word, the loop would run 26 * 10 = 260 times. Is there a better, elegant way to do this?

  Using jquery's $.ajax function, I'm not able to parse the results. For example, I used it like this $.ajax({ url : "http://api.twitter.com/1/users/show.json?screen_name=techcrunch", dataType : "json", success : function(data) { // parse the JSON here }, error : function() { alert("Failure!"); }, }); This doesn't work. Do I need a callback function?

• PHP - turning register globals off, what is the best way to go about fixing the code?

  - by user187809

  I am working on a old code base, where programmers assumed that register_globals will always be on. Hence variables are used without $_GET or $_POST prefix, pretty much in every page (the code base is huge, hundreds of scripts). I tried turning it off, but the very first script (login script) goes on an infinite loop. I understand that going through one script at a time, and one line at a time and fixing the variables is probably the only option (adding the prefix $_GET or $_POST as the case may be). Has anyone does this before? How did you go about doing it? Any advice?
