The World Programming Theory

Image

This world is a Software Project.  We, humans are the programs or basically code segments. The God himself is a CEO of this firm which has made this software.

Let me elaborate it by beginning with the almighty himself. Almighty is a CEO / CFO/ Founder or a whole sole in-charge of a huge software firm. He once thought of starting a new project which should last or be functional until he himself wants to destroy it or the programs themselves stop supporting the software functionality.

So he asked his most skilled developer “Nature” to do so and provided it a set of resources(Earth, Fire, Water, Sky and Air)which will be used to develop these programs .She (Nature) should manage their utilization. Nature then started creating the programs. She initially created two classes Male and Female and then made one object out of each class. The objects were named Adam and Eve.

As the project was approved, more classes were created (as inherited classes of male and female) and more objects were created.  Day by day the code started becoming intelligent (Artificial Intelligence). Now the code is so complex and intelligent that it has started to exploit the resources and the developer herself is getting sick due to the pressure of adjusting as per the code behavior.

When we look at the Gita/Bible/Quran/Guru Granth Saheb etc. all the books explain how the code should behave so that whole software should run as designed. But since the whole code never works as per the documentation so does the humans.

The angels and demons are basically same as the support and testing team. While demons try their best to bring out our flaws on the other hand, angels are there to bring us back on the track. Just like the support (maintenance team) is always there after release to help if the code doesn’t behave properly angels are there in the world.

Hence be a proper code segment. Find out for what purpose you are there in the program and fulfill it. Always try to get executed successfully. Try not to report an unhandled exception , whatever is the value supplied to you. Remember each and every code segment always matters for a whole software to compile and run successfully. 

Solar Power Aircraft

Altran Technologies has made a dream come to reality. It is on its way to launch a fully solar powered aircraft which will be flying without any fossil fuel. The plane is in development stage and its next flight is  scheduled for 2014. Although a test flight had already been done, still some major implementations are needed to be done. Almost seven years had already been passed in studying and developing the plane still 3-4 more years it will  take before it is put for commercial use. It is going to save a large amount of fuel as well as it would save the emission of pollutants into air.

Beginning with LaTeX (lɑːtɛk)

A  Typesetting program used for creating professional level documents.  LaTeX refers to the language in which the documents are written. Specific text editors like Texmaker, MikTex etc are used for this purpouse. Latex code is written in a file with ‘.tex’ extension and compiled to produce a portable document format (.’ pdf’) file.

Some Latex editors could be downloaded from the given links:

Miktex
Texmaker

A sample LaTex code could be written as below:

Above file when compiled gives the output as following file in PDF format:

Any queries related to Latex editor installation,code or compilation are welcomed as comments.

Memory “Requirements”

“640K is the enough memory for a human being” – Bill Gates (Microsoft Chairman , 1981)

Above Quote by Mr. Bill Gates which appears so silly nowadays, was believed to be an exact approximation about 20 years ago. I still remember the day when I had a mobile phone with 64K of internal memory and my friend bought a new PC with 40GB of Hard disk space. That day I thought that he has more than enough memory space in his PC. Even 2 years ago when I bought my Laptop with 320 GB storage , I was sure enough that I’d never be able to utilize it fully. But today it seems a bit difficult to manage within 320 GB space. Memory of my Laptop is fully occupied and I have to delete something whenever I have to store anything new. I have a friend who’s having a 1TB hard drive, a 500GB hard drive and a Mac with 500GB internal storage. Still, he feels it difficult to manage his whole data. I wonder why, but I know that’s natural. It could have happened with me too.

The whole idea about this post is human demands are infinite. We can’t confine our requirements in a space however long it is. We always demand more than we have. One more perfect example regarding this idea is Human Space Missions and search for the living conditions on other planets. Our requirements are so high that  a planet with 40008 km of circumference is not enough for a human being of 6 feet. Looking at the other side of the coin we also have an argument that necessity is the mother of invention. We haven’t been so technically advanced if we didn’t had increasing needs and demands.

So I conclude this post by the thought that whatever the field is , human needs are infinite and hence he tries his best to fulfill them. This is the reason why we are seeing a day to day advancement in technology. Being an engineering student I try to keep myself updated with recent advancements in engineering and I think every person should to try to do so in his/her field
