I read the first post. It says "NO GUESSING TWICE IN A ROW". I didn't guess twice in a row. I guessed, and then I commented upon my guess.

C++ is a programming language. HTML and CSS aren't. HTML is a markup language and CSS is a stylesheet language. C++ has more in common with Javascript than with either HTML or CSS, in that you can define variables, evaluate expressions, use loops, and so on.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C++ for more information. (Is there any way to format that URL so that it is clickable, including the '++' at the end? It seems the forum doesn't like me to use a '+' in a URL.)

It seems it only doesn't like the "+" when its at the end. I couldn't get it to work either, even with [url] tags.

Why yes, yes there is! ASCII to the rescue! Use & # 4 3 ; without spaces as + to fool the parser into accepting your link (and don't preview the post). Like this:

Crack, because it's the only word in the list that contains any letter more than once?

My old one (which I said at the start was far too complicated, I shouldn't have posted it):


Anyway, we'll forget about that one now. The latest one I've posted should be a lot more gettable especially by people who are involved in this thread..

Check again.

So does that mean C++ goes hand in hand with PHP?

For the new one, pigeons, because its the only one plural?

Now it says "[Last edited by UrAvgAzn at 05-21-2006 1:34PM]". So you edited the rules just to win this silly argument? I disapprove of such behaviour; "Its just cheap" (sic).

C++ and PHP are both programming languages. I wouldn't say they go hand in hand since they're quite different. As far as I know, C++ is an ugly hack to add object orientation to the C programming language and PHP is a poorly designed scripting language. I've not used either of them very extensively, so I can't really comment.

Yeah, but its also called updating the rules. I dissaprove of arguing, so I'm just gonna say we are off topic. There, we are both safe now.

Careful man, you'll have YrAvgAsn on your back for infringing rule 2 if you're not careful.

That was really kinda mean. And you also spelled my name wrong.

I don't really have a guess, because I just had my MCAS (Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System) today. It was about math. Oh well.

Oops, sorry, my failure to read the rules again.
Anyway, the answer is to do with machines. I'll give you that much of a clue.

Ah, but a rake is also a first-class lever in some cases!

Yes, Coppro is right. It's because of the class of lever the objects are. I haven't got time to check if he got the right object or not, I'm in a rush.
