<personal nit>
The ancients never thought the earth was flat, navigation would have been impossible and someone would have noticed the horizon curves out at sea - in
other words it's a bit bl**dy obvious we live on a big ball.
The whole notion that the ancients believed on a flat earth was invented in 1828 by Washington Irving's publication of The Life and Voyages of
Christopher Columbus.
In other words the whole thing is a modern conceit.
I thought the Hindu universe was flat like this. Clearly they believed in scientific proof...

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

If you are going faster than C then would you not be doing C+, and, if that is the case then its already been done but they called it a programing
language.
Then of course you would go a LOT faster than C, which would be C++.

Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.
