[Bf-committers] Data Structure Changes

[David Lewis]

Hey Matt,

Thanks for the advice a while back on what to edit within the code. I like
the idea of making the name generation algorithm more efficient. We are
doing a lot of things in class based on what is more efficient (consume
less memory and less time). Where would I find the name generation
algorithm?

Thank you,
David
