SUMMARY:On the pitfalls and traps of programming languages - Mariusz Róż
 ycki\, Churchill College

CONTACT:Matthew Ireland
DESCRIPTION:We live in the magical land of undergraduate studies\, where l
 anguages have well-defined semantics. Equality is a reflexive\, symmetric 
 and transitive relation. Languages are designed with the "least surprises"
 \nprinciple in mind and compilers adhere to the specifications\nand are bu
 g-free.\n\nJoin me on a trip to the Real World\, where none of the above i
 s true. Where programming languages are created by people who "actually ha
 te programming"\, maintained by people obsessed with backwards compatibili
 ty\, and documented by the tooth fairy. Bring your towels.
