Which is the best data structure to hold data like this?
Sorry. No Programming Questions in Lounge.. But i found that it was quite interesting. Ok no problem.
Regards, Koushik. Most people never run far enough on their first wind to find out if they've got a second. Give your dreams all you've got and you'll be amazed at the energy that comes out of you.

I had no problems till one of my customers mailed me a bug report. The problem is that he has two children with his own daughter. Oh dear, oh dear, maybe he need to develop the FamilyTreeEx version.

Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together. Manfred R. Bihy: "Looks as if OP is learning resistant."

Fritzel? What with him and Arnie having a 14 year old child no-one knew about we have learnt that Austrians are not very nice people, but are very good at keeping secrets.

To be fair, the point of family trees is to map out your family history rather than keep track of which current members of your family you are sticking it into. I am sure you do not have to go too far back in generations before there is a reasonable chance of finding similar situations.

Yes, and if you are a royal family member, your ancestor's tree can get rather convoluted.

When I was looking into mine (I used genesreunited) someone got in touch because he thought he was a relative and let me look at the tree he had got so far and essentially the two main branches above him went out in a huge circle. Brother and sister a number of generations ago got married and had children, they and their children kept marrying and breeding until eventually a direct descendant of the sister married a direct descendant of the brother.

I believe someone suggested something similar in the SO thread. The easiest update would be to add a 2nd object to represent the 2nd instance. And add a 2nd equality check method which by default returns false except when 2 objects represent the same person. Perhaps each object can have an internal list of other objects it's "humanly" identical to but "programatically" different from. This way the data structure as well as all the validation remains the same and yet the program functions normally.

He started from an obviously flawed premise. The software should allow the user to do whatever he darn well pleases.

well that does bring to mind the old joke about the family tree having no branches...
Programming is a race between programmers trying to build bigger and better idiot proof programs, and the universe trying to build bigger and better idiots, so far... the universe is winning.
