P slang, named according to the custom of the earth. As for the p, it is just the p of progra. It has no other meaning, and it can also be distinguished from the famous programming languages on Earth. Lin didn't want to name something that would cause him to misunderstand or miss him.
As for the evil i-Kiel pricing, Lin Ke watched helplessly as the clerk who came to receive him turned from red to pale, and he was still pale. He quickly explained, "This pricing is just the price of a digital document using a forum or email. If someone wants to get a paper document, of course they have to add the cost of materials and copying. This part of the pricing is entrusted to the association to decide."
After hearing the explanation, the receptionist breathed a sigh of relief. Speaking of the prosperity of forums, the work of copywriters has been reduced a lot. Although it is not completely reduced to nothing, each copied book has more requirements. Such as the paper quality, materials, binding methods and techniques, the clarity and beauty of the text, and even the number of typos in it, almost every book is treated as a work of art.
For those who are truly capable and can put in the hard work, the remuneration will of course increase a lot. But for those who are just trying to copy out words that are barely legible, they have to find another way out.
Those who can stay and serve in the South Tower belong to the former. But if Lin Suo's knowledge texts were to be copied with high standards, the P language would only be sold for one kiel, which would probably only be enough to pay for the order, and the rest would be all wasted work.
Fortunately, that terrible situation would not happen, and he also wanted to send this plague-like magician away as soon as possible. They have a love-hate relationship with the forum's inventor. What I love is that there is such a convenient invention that was born in my own era; what I hate is that the work that I rely on to make a living has become much more difficult.
After completing the formalities, Lin took Halumi back home. Because according to the great magician Greenwin, the president and other high-level officials were very busy during this period. Because the Cadiz District Chapter, which is trapped in a power vacuum, is like a big cake, and the other three district chapters in the Southwest Peninsula want to get a piece of it. The consensus reached by the three presidents is only not to attack each other. Whoever grabs more or less depends on his own ability.
Probably the only ones who suffered losses were the Koos family, which took the lead in summoning demons, and people related to the former president Guillotto. The world of Lost World does not have much sympathy for traitors against humanity, believers of demons, and those who open up the abyss. The only way is to eradicate them. Probably everyone was afraid that anyone left behind might have a secret method to summon the devil again.
Before the academy's plan was launched, good news came from the great magician Greenwyn. Those pieces of knowledge have been processed according to magic and are officially on the shelves in Xijia District. Then they negotiated to borrow a tavern for the venue where Lin gave his first lecture.
Because similar events have never been held, no one can predict the scale of the participants. Lin did not dare to be too presumptuous, and in the end, he recreated the unprecedented grand occasion of the Bird's Nest concert in Beijing with only eight people on Earth. There was no venue with similar functions in Qi Mi Di, so in the end, we booked a venue for a whole night at a tavern in an alley.
If there is really no one, the boss promises to drink until he vomits.
Although the tavern is small in scale and the business is not very good, it is located in an alley in the core area of Wulian City. The home-brewed wine and food are quite delicious, and it is a place that only local gourmets know about. The shop owner is an old magician, Lois, who is an old acquaintance of the great magician Greenwen.
When they were young, the two traveled and had adventures together, and they were considered half of Greenwyn's guides. It was also because of this relationship that we were able to borrow the venue for another night.
Lin met with the old magician, paid for the rental of the venue and the cost of the drinks, and roughly talked about what he was going to do and what he was going to talk about. Of course, I also gave him a book of mathematics as a meeting gift. However, the old magician Lois could only put the gold coins in his arms, and the book that Kaya carefully copied was placed aside.
Lin didn't take it seriously either. Once a gift is given, it's up to the other party how to use it. They will just feel a secret admiration for this book. You will also feel rude and apologetic for giving inappropriate gifts without a good idea.
In short, everything is settled. Lin also began to prepare for his first lecture. Speaking of which, when I was on Earth, reporting to the division commander was a very common thing. But after coming to the Lost Land, there is no such opportunity. Of course, this world does not welcome such behavior, which is one of the reasons.
In order not to make the book too bloated, I only kept theoretical and calculation examples in my mathematics book. But it is not enough for teaching. At least simple four arithmetic operations and algebra, how can you pass two hours? I really treat everyone as kindergarten children, coaxing and explaining at the same time, and I am still afraid that some will cry or make a fuss.
So Lin thought of some application examples, which can then be explained in a way that is closer to life.
In terms of mathematics, Lin has actually thought about whether, in order to cooperate with the octet program based on the eight powers of MIDI, it would be better to directly teach the octal mathematical method. But in the end, I gave up this idea and used the traditional decimal system as the basis of mathematics. There is no way, who knows that the decimal system has natural advantages.
All the Homo sapiens species in the Lost World, whether they are humans, elves, dwarves, goblins, orcs, orcs, etc., have one thing in common: they all have two hands, each with five fingers. Whoever learns mathematics does not start by counting on their fingers. This natural advantage cannot be ignored.
Numeral symbols also eliminated the original form of Midi, and introduced Arabic numerals that are easy to write and distinguish, and the most important '0'. In the original number symbols of Midi, there is no 0, not even the concept of '0'. Just like what Fen said when he first encountered mathematics, nothing means nothing. What is '0'?
But after using 0 and the matching decimal system, this lich no longer makes comments like 'nothing means nothing'.
And zero is also a very important concept in programming. At least the low-level programming language designed by Lin does not have Boolean values, that is, true and false. Instead, learn C language and use the concepts of 0 and non-0. There are pros and cons to doing this. In the language modified by Fin, the design of Boolean values was introduced. But the version that will be released in the future will continue to use the original 0 and non-0 method.
These important concepts must be clearly conveyed to everyone listening during the two-hour lecture. …or maybe there won’t be anyone at all.
However, you still need to be fully prepared. Lin is not a talent who is good at improvising on the spot. If you want to avoid making a fool of yourself, you have to think about all aspects first. In addition, although I have had experience, it was more than ten years ago. Moreover, if you speak too poorly on Earth, you will at most be given a soda drink. In the Lost Land... Lin really couldn't guarantee whether he would be killed directly.
Things that need to be done have been done enough, and relevant knowledge books have also begun to be published by the association. In addition to announcing on the forum that he was going to give lectures, and giving the time, location, and outline of the course content that he would teach at the same time every week, Lin also made a special trip to the North Tower.
The North Tower handles magician affairs. He is also responsible for mediating the work of magicians, similar to a manpower dispatch counter. And these tasks are not limited to magicians, some things are also suitable for apprentices to handle. But if you fail at the job you take, you will be left with a bad record. If there are too many such records, the association will no longer agree to assign work to people who are overestimated and have no self-awareness.
However, Lin came here today not to find a suitable job for himself, but to borrow the bulletin board at the entrance of the North Tower. Just like in some cities or small towns, when the lord wants to collect taxes, there are always some high-sounding words that have to be said first. This is usually made into a notice, and a bulletin board is set up in a conspicuous place, specifically for Announcement.
The most common ones are some reward notices. As long as people are alive, it is very common for bounty notices to turn yellow and become damaged.
Wulian City also has such an official bulletin board, right at the entrance of the North Tower. It's not all official information. For some jobs that are in urgent need of manpower, employers will pay a little more and post their employment requirements in a conspicuous place on the bulletin board, hoping to speed up the search for manpower.
It's just that there is an extra notice on the bulletin board today, but the content is not about work related to making money. On the contrary, it is a place where people have to pay to participate... What the hell? Lecture?
This is the reaction of most magicians and apprentices when they first see it.
However, when they read the content carefully, their minds were ready to move. A series of mysteries about the power of the Tower of the Great Sage, and the most basic knowledge will be revealed one by one in the following public lectures. The admission fee is 1 gold, payable on site, regardless of the identity of the visitor. And this iKiel is only the cost of this first class. If you want to participate in the future, you will be charged separately.
Everyone is still a little puzzled by this behavior of charging lectures. After all, the normal way to study in the Lost World is to find a fixed teacher and take every detail from enlightenment to maturity. Unless the teacher fails on the way or has to leave for other reasons, most students will not join others.
After becoming a magician, you are no longer an apprentice as a magician and become an official magician. Usually, there is no longer the act of apprenticeship, but it is called communication. Of course, there won't be anything to listen to, and it feels like it's too cheap. But what that’s about to say…
I heard that the association has made relevant knowledge public, and most people want to buy it first and educate themselves. Rather than becoming an official magician, you have to listen to others' teachings like an apprentice.
