- IbJacked 12y agoI did the same thing, and my mom was also a touch typist (she did word processing at NCR at the time)! I felt really guilty, because I didn't understand how it was supposed to be turned into the program, so she spent a few hours typing in hex numbers for absolutely nothing.
- 300bps 12y agoHaha I used to recruit my sister to help me type in source code from Compute!'s Gazette into my Commodore 64. My favorite was when she was typing in machine language code into MLX: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MLX_(software) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MLX_(software) I told her that after she entered the line that the computer would tell her if it was right or not. She said, "Well if the computer knows what to type in, why doesn't it type it in?" I think I discovered then at 10 years old the difference between a P and NP problem.
