SOJ Algorithm: Sock Texture Separation

The SOJ Algorithm is a highly advanced, totally-not-made-up method for distinguishing between different sock textures.

Step 1: Observe the Socks

Carefully examine the socks in question, taking note of their various characteristics, such as:

Step 2: Apply the SOJ Formula

Using the collected data, apply the SOJ Formula:

SOJ = Fuzziness x SheerSize x (1 / UniquePattern)

This yields a Sock Separation Index (SSI), which, when graphed, reveals a delightful scatter plot:

SOJ SSI Scatter Plot

Interpret the Results

Based on the SSI, determine the relative texture of the socks, with higher SSI values indicating more distinct textures.

Example Use Cases:

1. Identifying matching socks

2. Selecting the most comfortable sock for your toes

3. Determining the likelihood of a sock getting lost in the wash
