My history of quotes, because the damn profile is too short

Saturday, November 20, 2004

Shawn Cokus, my PIC10A (computer science) professor:
• People like computer science because... "it is imposing your will on the machine."
• "There are two slashes in the world..."
• Getting the wrong answer: "That's, like, way not this."
• The "my-number-is-bigger-than-yours" game: "But eventually you grow up, that's how the game ends."
• After telling a story about a misguided rocket: "The machine will not explode in the PIC lab."
• Demonstrating range of data: "I can't draw the steps, because, there's like, 4 billion of them."
• "Floating point numbers are like a disease, but a good disease."
• Writing pi out to 17 decimal places: "You can double check me if you, like, really care."
• "We're completely going to ignore these 'world' issues."
• "Bool variables... aren't so exciting."
• "Void indicates, the absence of something."
• "If he's so dumb that he can't guess all the numbers from 1 to 999, he deserves to be stuck in the program forever."
