Chapter 160: Preparation for Lectures
P-language, named after the custom of the earth. As for the p, it's just progra's p, which has no other meaning, and it can also be distinguished from the famous programming terms of the earth. Lin didn't want to name names that would mislead him or miss him.
As for the evil iKiel price, Lin Ke watched the clerk who came to receive him, his face turned from red to white, and he was still miserable. He quickly explained, "This price is just the price of using the forum or email digital files. If one wishes to obtain a paper instrument, of course the cost of the materials and the copy will have to be added. The pricing of this part is entrusted to the association. ”
After listening to the explanation, the clerk who received him breathed a sigh of relief. With the prosperity of the forum, the work of the scribe has decreased considerably. Although it is not completely reduced to none, each copied book has more requirements. For example, the paper, the materials, the 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 people who really have the ability and can work hard, of course, the remuneration has increased a lot. But for those who are indiscriminately filling up the numbers and can only copy barely legible characters, then they have to find another way.
And those who can stay and serve in the South Tower belong to the former. However, if you want to use high standards to copy the knowledge and writing of Lin Suo, that p language is only sold for i kiel, and it is estimated that it will only be enough to pay for the order, and the rest will be all day work.
Thankfully, that terrible situation wouldn't happen, and he wanted to send the plague-like magician away as soon as possible. They love and hate the inventors of the forum. Love is to have such a convenient invention, born in its own time; What I hate is the work that makes my living more difficult.
After completing the formalities, Lin took Halumi back to his home. Because according to Grand Wizard Greenwyn, the guild leader and other high-level officials are quite busy during this time. Because the Cadiz district, which is in a power vacuum, is like a big cake, and the other three districts of the Southwest Peninsula want to get a kick in it. The consensus reached by the three presidents is only not to attack each other. Whoever grabs more or grabs less depends on their ability.
Probably the only ones who suffered losses were the Koos family, who led the summoning of demons, and the people related to the former president, Greotto. For the traitors against humanity, the believers of demons, and the people who open the abyss, there is not much sympathy for the world of the Lost Land, and the only way is to cut the grass and eradicate the roots. Probably everyone is afraid that if anyone is left behind, there may be a means to keep the secret and summon the demon again.
Before the Academy's plan was launched, there was good news from Grand Wizard Greenwyn. Those few items of knowledge have been handled according to magic, and they will be officially put on the shelves in Xijia District. Then for the venue of Lin's first lecture, he also borrowed a tavern.
Since there had never been a similar event, no one knew for sure what the scale of the participants would be. Lin didn't dare to be too presumptuous, and in the end, he reproduced the unprecedented grand occasion of only eight people at the Bird's Nest concert in Beijing. And there is no venue with a similar effect, and in the end, it is a tavern in an alley, and it is a whole night field.
If there is really no one, the boss promises to drink until he vomits.
Although the tavern is not large in scale and the business is not very good, it is located in the alleys in the core area of Wulian City, and the home-brewed wine and food are quite delicious, and they belong to the local gourmets who know about it. The owner is an old magician, Lois, who is an old acquaintance of Grand Wizard Greenwin.
When they were young, the two had traveled and adventured together, and they were half of Greenwin's guides. It is also because of this relationship that I can borrow the venue for the next night.
Lin met with the old magician, paid for the rental of the venue and the drinks at that time, and roughly talked about what he was going to do and what he was going to talk about. Of course, I also gave a book of mathematics as a meeting gift. But the old magician of Lews only put the gold in his arms, and the book that Kaya had carefully copied was casually aside.
In this regard, Lin did not care. The gift is sent, and how to use it is the other party's business, but they will feel the pearl of the book. I will also feel reckless and sorry for giving an inappropriate gift for not being long-sighted.
In short, everything is decided. Lin also began to prepare for his first lecture. Speaking of which, when I was on Earth in the past, it was very common to make a report to the division commander. But after coming to the lost land, there is no such opportunity. Of course, this kind of behavior is not popular in the world, which is also one of the reasons.
Because I am in the mathematics book, in order not to be too bloated, I only keep examples of theory and calculation. But it's not enough to use it to teach, at least the four simple operations and algebra, how to drag two hours of time. I really treat everyone as a kindergarten child, coaxing, explaining, and I'm afraid that someone will cry and make a fuss.
So Lin thought of some application examples, which can be explained in a way that is closer to life.
In terms of mathematics, in fact, Lin You has thought about whether the octagram program based on the eight powers is just to teach the octal mathematical method directly in order to cooperate with the mystery. But in the end, I gave up on this idea and used the traditional decimal system as the basis of mathematics. No way, who calls the decimal system has a natural advantage.
All Homo sapiens in the Lost World, whether humans, elves, dwarves, goblins, orcs, half-orcs, etc., have two hands in common, and one hand is five fingers. Who learns mathematics does not start by counting their fingers, and this natural advantage cannot be ignored.
In addition to the original form, the numeric symbols have also been introduced with easy-to-write and easy-to-distinguish Arabic numerals, and most importantly, '0'. In the original number symbol, there is no 0, not even the concept of '0'. It's like Fen said in the first encounter with mathematics, no is nothing, what is '0'?
But with the use of 0 and the decimal system that works with each other, the lich never came up with the idea that 'no is nothing'.
Zero is also an important concept in the program. At least the underlying programming language designed by Lin does not have Boolean values, that is, true and fase, but learns the concept of C pragmatics 0 and non-0. There are good and bad ways to do this. In Finn's revised language, a Boolean design was introduced. However, the version that will be released in the future will follow the original 0 and non-0 practices.
These important concepts must be clearly conveyed to everyone who listens during the two-hour lecture. …… Or maybe there won't be anyone at all.
However, the preparations that should be made still have to be done, Lin is not a talent who is good at playing on the spot. If you don't want to be ugly, you have to think about all aspects first. In addition, although I have experience, it was more than ten years ago. Besides, if you speak too badly on Earth, you will be prescribed soda at most. In the Lost Land...... Whether it will be killed directly, Lin really can't guarantee it.
What should be done is done sufficiently, and relevant knowledge books are also started by the association. In addition to announcing that he was going to give a lecture at the forum, and giving the time, place, and outline of the course content that he would teach at the same time every week in the future, Lin also made a special trip to the North Tower.
The North Tower is for magicians. It is also responsible for the work of intermediary magicians, similar to the counter of manpower dispatch. And these tasks are not limited to magicians, and some things are suitable for apprentices. But if you fail to take over the job, you will be left with a bad record. If there were too many such records, the Association would no longer agree to assign work to people who were incompetent and self-aware.
However, Lin Ke came here today, not to find an errand that suits him, but to borrow the bulletin board standing at the entrance of the north tower. For example, in some cities or small towns, when the lord collects taxes, there will always be some high-sounding words that have to be said first, which is usually made into a notice, and a bulletin board is set up in a conspicuous place to announce the news.
The most common occurrence is some bounty notices. As long as people don't die, it is very common for bounty notices to be hung until they are yellowed or damaged.
Wulian City also has such an official bulletin board, which is at the entrance of the North Tower. It's not all official information, and for some jobs that are in urgent need of manpower, employers will also pay a little more and nail their employment requirements to 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 a job related to making money. On the contrary, it is a place where people have to pay to participate...... What's that? Lectures?
This is the first reaction of most magicians and apprentices who come here.
However, when they read the content, their minds are stirring. A series of basic knowledge about the mysteries of such a powerful tower of the Great Sage will be revealed one by one in the following public lectures. The entrance fee, iKiel 1 gold, is paid on the spot, and the identity of the person who comes is not restricted. And this i Kiel, only the cost of this first class, if you want to attend again in the future, it will be charged separately.
This kind of behavior of charging for lectures is still a little puzzled by everyone. After all, the normal state of studying in the lost world is to find a fixed teacher and go from enlightenment to success in every detail. Unless the teacher hangs on the way, or has to leave for other reasons, most students will not go to others.
And when you become a teacher, you are out of the apprenticeship and become a full-fledged magician, and usually there will be no more apprenticeship at this time, but it is called communication. Of course, there won't be anything to listen to, so it feels too cheap. But what is going to be told......
I heard that the association has made relevant knowledge public, and most people's idea is to buy it first and learn it by themselves. Instead of becoming a full-fledged magician, you have to listen to others like an apprentice.
I want to chat with more like-minded people about "The Starry Sky of the Magic Tower", pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
