Manga = comics.
Anime = animation.

Actually == means 'set equal to', if I'm up on my programming lingo. Try and keep up, and stop turning people into cars!

No, == is the boolean operator, = is the "set equal to." In C++ at least.

you are thinking of '='

such as

Booger boogerInstanceOf = BoogerFactory.getBooger();
Janitor j = JanitorFactory.getOneNamedBob();
j.setSelf(boogerInstanceOf);


if you got that joke, j00 sir, are as lame as i! gj!

Curses, you're right. Never shall I be worthy to touch a keyboard again! And I thiiiink I understood that, although it seems your punchline (can you call it that?) was ruined by being turned into an emoticon.  
Code: [Select]
That's what code is for, foolio!
EDIT: OMG ADMIN STEALTH EDIT TO MAKE BOB LOOK EVEN WORSE!

And for once it wasn't me...

So now it's programming languages? Allow me to program a simple robot in robotalk:

Code: [Select]
main:
aim 5 + aim' store
range 0 > shoot if
main jump

shoot:
50 shoot' store
return

Code: [Select]
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <stdlib>

int main()
{
    char cNiteowl[] = "Nub";

    if (!strcmp(cNiteowl, "Nub"))
    {
        cout << "Niteowl is a " << cNiteowl << "!!!111oneone" << endl;
        system("PAUSE");
    }
    else
    {
        cout << "Hmm, appears Niteowl isn't a nub" << endl;
        system("PAUSE");
    }
}
*EDIT: Bah, code was wrong. :)

there is another manga

its called "Midori no Hibi" or "Days of Midori"

romantic comedy, i think some of you will like it.

i'd tell you the story line, but i'd rather have you guys see the first issue first.

Niteowl, that is some silly American manga, as it is not backwards.

Though i didn't read it, i figured as much from the look of the site.

For those who don't know, while english comics are read left to right, japanese manga is read right to left

of course, if you're into manga you'd know that when redone for english they usually mirror the images before they alter it and put on the translations so it reads from left to right ^~

When I said I liked the artwork I was really talking about the later stuff, the first chapter would've been alright but they copped out and wrote most of it instead.  They should've just stuck to written or manga all the way... I hate it when stuff changes format without warning or cause ><
