IQOD #2

haha Ehmm thuis? de basisschool? Nederland? hahah 'k ben Nederlands - maar woon nu al bijna 10 jaar in de States so my Dutch is getting a little rusty

And virtual employee? maybe.... I Have way more questions where those came from!
Should I already post another since everyone (but zeco) took a shot at it?

oh ok ^^ das best wel vet, ik ben nu 17 en ik wil ook naar amerika verhuizen als ik van school af ben
mischien kom ik wel bij je werken over een paar jaar :P

edit: im fine with another one, althought it wont really be an IQOD then :P

Well dusver zie ik wel potentie wat was ik aan't doen toen ik 17 was... hmmm.. HIO + werken als ik het me nog goed herinner .. good times lol

wat is een HIO?

dat was "Hogere Informatica Opleiding".. wie weet wat ze het tegewoordig noemen

ik heb ADD(wat zo ongeveer gelijk staat aan een ziek concentratievermogen als iets me interesseerd, wat met programmeren het geval is) en ik ben te lui om fysiek werk te zoeken ^^ dus dan zit er weinig anders op dan voor mijn lol programmeren en af en toe voor familie of vrienden iets te maken.

k denk nie dat ik veel problemen zal hebben met de andere IQODS maar je weet maar nooit ^^ mischien vind ik wel iets waar ik nog aan kan werken

Just posted another one... ok i'm heading out to lunch.. be back in an hour to check on you guys's answers

Oh. Wow -_- This seems like a repeat of last year where I failed the recursion test ....

Well I looked at HD's answer and I see what I did wrong now. Every time e() was called with the parameter --n I did think to consider n was being decremented. Instead I thought of it as e(n-1). Oh well. LOL. So far I don't think I got the job xD.

And wth BA are you some kind of Renaissance man? How many languages do you speak o_O?

LOL!
i speak dutch,english,french(poorly) and german(poorly) oh and i can say basic stuff in danish and norwegian ^^

BA knows every language on the world for he is a master in everything :P

edit: dutch english french and german are subjects in school from which we dutchies can not escape you can drop french and german in 4th grade of secondary school. but dutch and english will hunt you forever! well not really only english will, im going to america or the UK once im finished with school

It seems everyone in Europe can speak a dozen languages and we here in the U.S. only speak one. Maybe it is because we are so isolated from the rest of the world? idk. Are school system fails at teaching us other languages. The only language they teach us is Spanish up to highschool. Then you have a few more choices, but no one here who does not have relatives in another country, but only here speaks any other language well.

Probably because what's the point.. number wise only chinese I believe surpasses English as # of speakers in the world so here in the US unless you have a specific interest there's no real reason to learn languages such as french or german (sucked at both and dropped them as fast as I could! ).
Spanish is sorta the defacto extra language here because of Mexico.

In Europe since you can drive through 3 countries in less than 3 hours sometimes (lol) all speaking their own language it's more relevant to know at least a little bit about the languages etc.

And good for you HD I hope you do.. was the best thing I ever did

My tentative answer is 0, -1, -2

Darn school wasn't here in time. I hope no one got it before me >_<. I shall now read the comments up to now.

Hey Zeco,

Good to see you join in on the fun
