Please help Guys - Why java is implemented in stack ? Rakesh rakeshsv@gmail.com wrote On 04/24/07 17:10,: > Please help > > Guys - Why java is implemented in stack ? Why not?

Guys is a gender neutral term when used by young Australians or residents of the northern United States. It seems that Southerners use "y'all" instead. <http://research.umbc.edu/~korenman/wmst/guys.html> >> P.S.: Some of the best help you'll find around >> here doesn't come from "guys." > Guys is a gender neutral term when used by young Australians or > residents of the northern United States.

Regardless, the question makes no sense to me. > Why java [sic] is implemented in stack ? What do you mean, exactly? I do not understand the phrase "implemented in stack" in this context. Certainly, the Java language, like every computer language I've heard of, uses stack structures to implement some of its activities. It also uses heap, sticking with the memory world. Are you asking why the Java Virtual Machine uses the stack for certain things? For the same reason every other computer language does, it's convenient and fast for certain things. (Which, in turn, is why computers have a stack in the first place.) SignatureLew >>> P.S.: Some of the best help you'll find around >>> here doesn't come from "guys."

I thought of using Yankees but, even in its broader meaning, that does not seems to include California. >>> P.S.: Some of the best help you'll find around >>> here doesn't come from "guys."

Hi gals, To me, the test of true gender neutrality is whether the singular form would be used to refer to one person regardless of gender. Nobody has ever called me a guy. Indeed, I've heard "It's a guy thing." applied to stereotype men. On the other hand, "you" is commonly used to address both men and women, so its southern US plural, "y'all", is truly gender neutral.

One reason may be target machine neutrality. Register based instruction sets are great if the compiler knows the number of registers in the target machine. A Java to bytecode compiler does not have that sort of information.

Frank Loesser would be 97 and Damon Runyan 122 ... and neither of them Australian. (Probably a good thing, because if young Australians can't tell guys from dolls the continent's population will dwindle away, and then what will happen to the old-age pensions of the few, doddering survivors? ;-) SignatureEric.Sosman@sun.com Free MagazinesGet these publications absolutely FREE for up to 12 months.
