how did they check them? just watched http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0040843/ and they mention in it about checking over a million fingerprints before coming up with a match - surely it wasn't done by checking each one individually?

Wouldn't it have been easier to look at Wikipedia?

I'd think they would have had an indexing system to categorise fingerprints based on patterns.
