system programming

Solving problems from 2020 with technology from 1980.

I could tell you a UDP joke, but you might not get it. - someone who had been system programming too long.

tuple-programming

In programming languages, such as Lisp, Python, Linda, and others, a tuple (pronounced TUH-pul) is an ordered set of values. tuple-programming is a new agile software development practice where a group of more than 2 programmers sit around a workstation and work together on a problem.

The AI team at Cresta is tuple-programming this afternoon.

Programming

The Best way to ... everything! Seriously you can program when you're:

Sad, Happy, Dancing, Sweating, Running, Jogging, Sing, Eating a Banana, Listenning to Britney Spears, Ignoring a Britney Spears Concert, Sitting, Standing, Baby-Sitting, Baby-Standing, Dressing, Undressing, Looking, Feeling, Living (preferably), Dying (although you might have better things to be doing), searching, meeting, throwing, dazing, shooting, carpetting, doing homework, breaking, screwing, Distressed, disgruntled, angry, pressed, stressed, etc. You get the point.

But I find it extremely useful right after a break-up. See example....

int main()
{

struct girl {
int happy_level;
char next_action(100);
int execute_action();
int render_action();
}

girl Susan = new girl;
Susan.happy_level -= 1000000000;
Susan.next_action = "Jump off cliff";
if(Susan.execute_action())
{
Susan.render_action();
}
else
{
cout<<"The action could not be executed. Susan's life will now become hell."<<endl;

while(1)
{
Susan.happy_level -= 1;
}
}
}

dynamic programming

In computer science, dynamic programming (short: DP) is a method for reducing the runtime of algorithms exhibiting the properties of overlapping subproblems and optimal substructure.

Mathematician Richard Bellman invented dynamic programming in 1953. The field was founded as a systems analysis and engineering topic which is recognized by the IEEE.

The problem looks too hard to solve - it must be dynamic programming!

programming language

A language created to write codes, that can make computers do things you don't want to.

Despite the belief, that some programming language is always the best choice, it's not. I can't make C++ write a website, or make JavaScript to build a open world 3D game, so stop the debate. If your goal is to work for a small company then JAVA or C# is your best bet. If you want to design games and media then learn C++. If you want to work for a big Fortune 100 company or for the government then learn COBOL. If you are interested in computer science and want to write utilities, operating systems, or compilers then choose C or assembly language.

Programming / Networking Instructor

A very evil person. This person loves to whip her students with Cat5 cable and make them do 87 page chapters in 5 minutes, or they fail the semester. She also has a wierd obsession with one of the head persons there, always threatening to send them out, but never does. She also blames the A.M. Class for all of the server problems, saying we are all hackers, but the P.M. Class doesn't do ANYTHING wrong.

See evil.

Today, our Programming / Networking Instructor told us to do chapter 3 in 5 minutes or we will fail the whole semester.
