- Rex

Rex (not REXX) is a programming language developed by Brown University
Professor Leslie Kaelbling
that forces AI programmers to write code that allows agents to respond to a
dynamic environment in real time. To write a Rex program you must write a LISP
program which, when executed, creates the Rex program.

RLE (Run Length Encoding) is a common
compression technique used when there are long strings of repeated values. To
run-length encode a string of identical values, a special "escape" value is
inserted at the beginning of the string followed by the number of times to
repeat a value and the value to be repeated. For example, if we use 0 as our
escape value, we might run-length encode the string of values:
3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 5 5 5 5 5 5 8 7 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 2 0
as follows:
0 9 3 0 6 5 8 7 0 8 4 2 0 1 0
