In a Java class, one is expected to WRITE Java code.
Funny concept I know, but it’s a fact.So, Russian prof guy doesn’t have enough copies of the programs for the class, BUT he has overheads. So if you don’t have a copy, and if you have a bitchy neighbour that won’t let you share their copy, you can copy it from the overhead.Even if you have a copy, you still need to type it in to get it running(it’s funny how code just doesn’t leap off the page onto the screen, it’s a shame really).
But that appears to be too much work for some people. They want a copy WRITTEN for them so that they can just look at the code and get it running. GOD forbid people should WRITE their own code!
It took five minutes to type, and close to 30 minutes to set it up so that the entire class could get a copy for them. Sounds like a plan well thought out.God some people are stupid.
