The Man In High Castle
512 wordsThis is my fourth and final paper. I chose to read The Man in the High Castle, simply because of availability of the book. It was an excellent choice, in my opinion. I'm probably not the only one who's liked the book, as it has apparently won a Hugo. The Nazis and the Japanese won Second World War, and now rule the world. Isn't that so? No, that's not true. Consult the oracle if you don't believe me. However, imagine that it would be so. Actually, you don't have to; Philip K. Dick has already im...

Frank Lloyd Wright One With Nature
1,462 wordsIt was a cool spring day with a light soothing breeze, flowers were blooming, the grass as green as it could be.

Programming Languages Black Box
1,120 words... d Java (which does have garbage collection) is incredibly slow. Therefore, the chief problem with C, allocating memory before use, being careful only to use memory you own, and then freeing it after use, isn't really remedied by C++. OOP's idea of hiding data and functions that shouldn't be seen elsewhere can already be done in C, with the use of static variables and static functions, and proper use of headers. C doesn't have exactly the right functionality for this, in fact it's rather prim...
