The development of a new programming language

Poza publicata in [ Political ]

Ive heard theres a new programming language out from University of Tennessee. Its called Algor.

There are some problems with it though. The syntax is very formal and inflexible. And its not a very powerful language either, since it wont allow you to alter the operating environment. Its survival is also partially dependent upon an even slower and lower quality language called Blinton.

Personally, I dont think either will be around in four years.

This test has only one question, but its a very important one.
By giving an honest answer, you will discover where you stand morally.The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation in which you will have to make a decision. Remember that your answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous.Please scroll down slowly and give due consideration to each line.You are in Florida, Miami to be specific.
There is chaos all around you, caused by a hurricane, with severe flooding.
This is a flood of biblical proportions.
You are a photo journalist working for a major newspaper, and you are caught in the middle of this epic disaster.
The situation is nearly hopeless.
Youre trying to shoot career-making photos.
There are houses and people swirling around you, some disappearing under the water.
Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.
Suddenly you see a woman in the water.
She is fighting for her life, trying not to be taken down with the debris.
You move closer.
……Somehow the woman looks familiar.
You suddenly realize who it is. Its Hillary Clinton!
At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to take her under…….forever.
You have two options — you can save Hillary Clinton, or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo documenting the death of one of the worlds most powerful women.
So, heres the question —–
Would you select high contrast color film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of Black and White?
