A Confirmation

What's the name of auto-destruct BIOS rutine in my computer?

Shouldn't there be no paradox in the first place?

Being a beliver I think that it's nothing wrong with such jokes.

O notation have nothing to do with time. O(n^2) algorithm takes n^2 steps whatever the length of step is.

In this case in timeless space they simply have no length (and are instantienious?) but they still exists.

But he can still consider goto harmful...

Shouldn't it be Hurd? Well - managing a project the is 25-years old with no production release is hell.

I had to use RandomAccessFile class to get points ;) As the only library I know about that contains is Java...

PS. I do not blame the teacher - it was IB PPS. I tried not to implement this class in other language - not with my future depending largly on it.

Hmm. Someone who said it have never programmed in VB or Java I'd guess. Java have many cons - in High School (project could be in any language as long as it was Java) I spent some time how to catch locally an exception thrown from constructor of an object which was supposed to be reached from closur... anonymous class. Solution was something like:

ObjectType _t;
try {
    _t = new ObjectType(...);
} catch(...) {
    // ...
}
final ObjectType t = _t;

But it's not entirly bad language or platform especially considering the age.

Well - JavaScript is of course a different story.

Java? Well - Java is not so bad (to begin with it's open).

I'd rather expect Cobol or Visual Basic.

Sometimes this optimalization does not work:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

void noop() {}

int main() {
    int stop = 0;
    while(stop == 0) {
        noop();
        noop();
        noop();
        noop();
        noop();
        noop();
        noop();
        noop();
        noop();
        stop = 1;
        noop();
        noop();
    }
}
