That's cold. I had a friend who used the entire McDonalds value menu for
variable names. Or I think I brought this up before, but I knew someone
learning c who programmed a sudoku solver and stored the whole thing in binary,
only the binary numbers were in decimal (e.g. 110110010.999999). It involved a
lot of logarithms and powers of ten.
