in reply to Constants you cannot help but remember
Howdy!
How many other random constants do you remember because of being a programmer?
That limitation seems to have been ignored by many respondants. Oh well...
Hmmm...let's see:
- 512x512 - the size of a PLATO screen in pixels
- 60 bits per word, 10 characters per word - memory characteristics of a CDC Cyber
- 128 - the number of characters in a charset
- 10 - the number of armies you have to bomb to get a kill in empire
- 8x16 - the character cell on PLATO
