Bravo, Guenter.
Sure I'll tell why it is a fact:
Guenter knows the kind of code a computer likes.<g>

As I said, I was struggling with "C".
The first example program is, of course, "Hello world".
It's an 8884 byte exe.

Here's my ASM version - just type it into debug.
BTW, I just wrote it that way - all 23 bytes.
Hello.com:

BA 09 01 B4 09 CD 21 CD 20 48 65 6C 6C 6F 20 77
6F 72 6C 64 0D 0A 24

And that certainly is not a record.<G>
