    Generic reusable code?

    Leads nowhere. A simple course in C# covers that.

    Sounds like somebody had a bit too much romanesco broccoli over the christmas...

    Your mention of simulation theory brought this film to mind. Well worth the watch if you're interested in that sort of thing.

    The Fibonacci numbers are Nature's numbering system. They appear everywhere in Nature, from the leaf arrangement in plants, to the the scales of a pineapple.
    That's amazing.

    It's like as if Fibonacci tried to model natural growth and ended up with a model for natural growth (that works in some cases)

    What are the odds ?

    My cat's brain smells like cat food! Also why did he stop moving? I put in back in after and glued it shut!

    Schrödinger had a theory about that.

    It's all about the reuse.

    9 What has happened before will happen again. What has been done before will be done again. There is nothing new in the whole world. 10 "Look," they say, "here is something new!" But no, it has all happened before, long before we were born. 11 No one remembers what has happened in the past, and no one in days to come will remember what happens between now and then. 12 I, the Philosopher, have been king over Israel in Jerusalem. 13 I determined that I would examine and study all the things that are done in this world. God has laid a miserable fate upon us. 14 I have seen everything done in this world, and I tell you, it is all useless. It is like chasing the wind. 15 You can't straighten out what is crooked; you can't count things that aren't there. 16 I told myself, "I have become a great man, far wiser than anyone who ruled Jerusalem before me. I know what wisdom and knowledge really are." 17 I was determined to learn the difference between knowledge and foolishness, wisdom and madness. But I found out that I might as well be chasing the wind. 18 The wiser you are, the more worries you have; the more you know, the more it hurts.

    How about some Fibonacci poetry?


    Hands
    and
    fingers,
    making rocks
    paper & scissors-
    in old fashioned digital games

    ~ Brian Strand

    Black then white are all I see in my infancy.
    red and yellow then came to be, reaching out to me.
    lets me see.
    As below, so above and beyond, I imagine
    drawn beyond the lines of reason.
    Push the envelope. Watch it bend.

    It's not recursive though, surely it should be?

    I think it would have to be a poop recursion in order to be relevant to Fibonacci. So maybe: 'Mods eat their own poop, which makes them poop, and then eat their own poop, which makes them poop...

    Stop condition: mod dies of E-coli :(

    while (boards.ie)
    {
    System.Windows.Messagebox.Show ("Non-mod peasants eat poop");
    }

    There, and more annoying with added popups.

    It's spelt "poops" not "popups"!!!

    A tracker mortgage is a house loan set at a fixed percentage or 'margin' above the ECB rate. For example, it could be set at the ECB rate plus one percentage point. So, if the ECB rate rises by a percentage point, so does your rate. It will also 'track' the ECB rate when this rate goes down.
