Sorry if I offended someone, that was certainly not my intention. And I
guess you will be surprised, if I tell you, I don't (want) to understand
any bit of the above code ;-) Come on, the home computer was invented
about 1980. If we look at hardware, it follows the Moore's law, for
software I would expect at least 0.1 of Moore's law ;-) I hope that
clarifies my point.
No, that only makes it even more confusing. What does Moore's Law have to
do with your willful ignorance about the existence of human languages
other than English?
Nothing.
I even don't (want to) see what bits / bytes / escape sequences have to
do with modern programming techniques,
so I certainly don't see any relation between these and human languages.
But the lack of Moore's law in software explains why we still need to
concern about bits and bytes ;-)
cheers,
