Hello!

Someone even cared to write a Wikipedia article about those benchmarks: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rugg/Feldman_benchmarks

But honestly, this is quite trivial programming and nothing special at all, not now and not then. Every professional software developer writes more sophisticated code than that every 10 minutes during a 10-hour workday and does not get honored with Wikipedia entries for his work...
