Jim's dictionary! (our attempt to decypher the flow of seemingly irrelevant/squewed information that is thrown in our general direction) When he says he really means:-
Foramatic disc = Fragmented disc
Fermented disc = Fragmented disc
Electro-mechanical interference = Electo-magnetic interference
It's not "that" type of physical fault = Umm pass
More perscriptive than a GPP = more specific than a GPP
Laborities = Laboratories
IBS number = ISBN number
Power Point is an event driven language = Power Point is a program in which the user can create a presentation using an event driven language
.. more to be added as soon as we receive them
Parameter = length
Sphinx
Other Misc. quotes from the misunderstood mind of Jim:-
"99.9% of the time you won't and 1.1% of the time you will"
"We have got to be specific - this is higher computing here" Later that period -
Let's keep these answers simple guys, this is only higher computing"
"A physical hard disk error can be fixed with a disk scanning program such as scandisk"
"No, that's wrong, you don't use subroutines in algorithms."
[other person argues that you could use them]
"Well, yes, there are no rights and wrongs in Higher Computing."
we hope this helped you!
any additions welcome
