Ergo, truth of those definitions would mean that analogue computers have no programs, which is absurd, so they are clearly false. Since you obviously have never actually "written" a program for an analogue computer, you might want to try doing that before you start stating silly things like this. Programming an analogue computer is like programming a digital computer by using TTL circutes. There is nothing `soft' about it. So unless you are going to state that a bunch of TTL chips connected in some form to make LEDs flash is a `program', and by direct consequene claim that hardware are programs, I suggest that you refrain from writting anymore about this topic that you obviously have no clue about, but if you'd like to learn more, feel free to send me a email. _______________________________________________ Discussion mailing list [email protected] https://mail.fsfeurope.org/mailman/listinfo/discussion
