Stupid question that's been annoying me

And likely STILL being taught wrong...had the same experiences in COBOL and PASCAL programming classes in college, but we got professor's assistants instead of the actual prof we paid for. Assistants are a fancy name for grad students that have free time and get sucked into doing the prof's work when he/she wants to goof off on the clock - at least at UI Champaign/Urbana and Parkland College (community college) anyway. -> -----Original Message----- -> From: owner-classiccmp(a)classiccmp.org -> [mailto:owner-classiccmp@classiccmp.org]On Behalf Of Jeffrey S.
