There wes a teacher teaching a basic class in Basic programming to a group of adults . Adults who had never been around computers befor are vere nervous & they are much harder to teach then children, how ever the teacher was a patient person so he enjoyed their successes.
However, he most share the following:
After putting a short program on the board, he told the students to type "R," "U," "N" and press return to see the program execute.
A hand went up in the back of the room, waving to get his attention, and said, "I did what you said and it didn't work.." Knowing full-well that all of us make mistakes when typing at the computer, he suggested she retype "R," "U," "N" and press return.A few seconds later, the lady's hand goes up again. "It still doesn't work," .
So... he went back to see what the problem is ... only to find that she did not typed RUN, she had typed in the following: ARE YOU IN !
hope you enjoy it.
