Libraries have no job. They have no obligations. No things they should or must do. They have methods that define what they can do.
So there is nothing stopping Athens from having such a feature. Hence my question. But I found the formula for this, looks like i will be learning linear algebra and geometry. Good thing I love math :D Στις 15 Νοε 2013 6:24 π.μ., ο χρήστης "Dennis Schetinin" <chae...@gmail.com> έγραψε: > Why do you think it's a job for Athens?
