Allow me to jump in with some pseudocode:
initialization:
BOS->fit = 0; BOS->owner = NULL;
while wearing:
if (BOS->owner == NULL) {
BOS->owner = currentWearer;
}
if (BOS->owner == currentWearer) {
BOS->fit += 1;
} else {
BOS->fit -= 1;
if (BOS->fit == 0) {
BOS->owner = NULL;
}
}
to get the "fit" value:
if (BOS->owner == currentWearer) {
return BOS->fit;
} else {
return - BOS->fit;
}
When Ackbar starts wearing the boots, he is not set as the owner of them.
"fit"-ness values can be negative, indicating a very poor fit. This
is what I deduced that Holly was suggesting.
