Warm-up....
A computer salesman, a hardware engineer, and a
software engineer are driving in a car together.
Suddenly the right rear tire blows out, and the
car rolls to a stop. Our three heroes pile out to
investigate The salesman announces sadly, "Time
to buy a new car!" Says the hardware engineer,
"Well, first let's try swapping the front and
rear tires, and see if that fixes it." Replies
the software engineer, "Now, let's just try
driving the car again, and maybe the problem will
go away by itself." )))))?
