$ fortune | cowsay _________________________________________ / Long ago, in a finite state far away, \ | there lived a JOVIAL character named | | Jack. Jack and his relations were poor. | | Often their hash table was bare. One | | day Jack's parent said to him, "Our | | matrices are sparse. You must go to the | | market to exchange our RAM for some | | BASICs." She compiled a linked list of | | items to retrieve and passed it to him. | | | | So Jack set out. But as he was walking | | along a Hamilton path, he met the | | traveling salesman. | | | | "Whither dost thy flow chart take | | thou?" prompted the salesman in | | high-level language. | | | | "I'm going to the market to exchange | | this RAM for some chips and Apples," | | commented Jack. | | | | "I have a much better algorithm. You | | needn't join a queue there; I will swap | | your RAM for these magic kernels now." | | | | Jack made the trade, then backtracked | | to his house. But when he told his | | busy-waiting parent of the deal, she | | became so angry she started thrashing. | | | | "Don't you even have any artificial | | intelligence? All these kernels | | together hardly make up one byte," and | | she popped them out the window... | | | \ -- Mark Isaak, "Jack and the Beanstack" / ----------------------------------------- \ ^__^ \ (oo)\_______ (__)\ )\/\ ||----w | || ||
