Five Symbols with Names

Starr Rules of Computing

1. Just say YES or just say NO ... Caveat is that making that determination is not always obvious BUT digital = binary.

2. It is all about PERMISSIONS ...Mother may I?

3. EVERYTHING is a typo ... particularly in programming syntax but good thing we have spell checkers and dictionaries.

4. It is all about PRINTING ... no one ever believes what they cannot see on paper(or perhaps now pdf).

5. Parking ...If you get a good parking spot anywhere, Life is good!

6. Measure ALL designs in any software program in PIXELS.

7. Soon to be expressed / defined.

The above are definitively and arguably AXIOMATIC and agnostic.
