Not bad, except that these employees are superhuman in one crucial way: You only ever have to give them a procedure once, and they've got it for good, and you can then build on that procedure to define more complex ones.
- falcolas 13y agoTrue, but procedures can be coded as "go to page 5, do instructions 2 to 55, and move to instruction 3 on this page." Of course page 5 was probably written by someone else, because it's probably a very basic instruction. But that just adds to our fun as programmers!
