Thanks! do you understand it by the way?

[Tsunaru]

Vaguely. Something about getting the number of times "I will not throw paper airplanes in class" has been printed out, and if its under 500 times, print it out once more, and repeat until it reaches it XD.

I had a couple years programming, but its been a while, so I'm a fair bit rusty XD

every person who is knows how to program something in C should get this award, since they really know how your computer work ^^

that is total bullshit. C programming does not ensure knowledge of computer bowels. electronics is also needed, as well as control engineering and other stuff like that. if you think that your reading head has mind of its own and knows how to position itself at given numerical address on the platter in order to actually make sense of pointers and whatnot with precision of nanometers, you are mistaken. bleh.

back to the topic, that sig gets recipient a +1 from me also :P

Thanks and yes I agree to your point that C doesn't ensure a complete understanding, but yes I know c and other stuff but, I didn't mentioned because I didn't have the chance to practice but I've already read quite a bit about cryptography. So it is a plus in understanding a computer for sure and to add to your point, it truth, it is hardly possible to FULLY understand your computer, you can know a lot but you "will always learn".
