I think this is a good way to learn some small tidbits about N, like algorithims, coding, strange facts, etc.


Did you know that the algorithim used by the gauss turret to aim and frequency is the bell curve with distance as x and direction as y?

Actually, that's debatable. :P He's only a centimetre tall, so chances are he can jump higher than a human, Like fleas, right?

Did you know that the enemies can still see the ninja when he is invisible (after 9 columns)?

EDIT:

This means that the eye of the drone is not what does the seeing.

No. N is not invisible. He She is merely the same color as the background.

do you know that in N+ you can crash a rocket into the turret, and it will refire

RSA is the premier provider of security solutions for business acceleration. As the chosen security partner of more than 90 percent of the Fortune 500, RSA helps the world's leading organizations succeed by solving their most complex and sensitive security challenges. In September 2006 after over 20 years providing leadership to the security industry, RSA Security joined forces with EMC Corporation and Network Intelligence to form the Security Division of EMC. Driving this merger is the recognition that customer needs have changed, and traditional approaches to information security are no longer sufficient. Increasingly, what should be your most important company asset—information—is your greatest liability.

In response, RSA is ushering in a new information-centric approach to security that will empower leading companies worldwide to address these challenges and move ahead with the confidence to compete and win in today’s marketplace. Fueling our mission is the passionate belief that security should be about lifting business limitations, not imposing them.
RSA_Security also had 3rd on 158-0 before NReality was down.

OOOoooohhhhh, so that's why it's a Gauss turret. I always just made bad puns about Gauss-Jordan eliminating it to find it's secret identity. *ba-dum-tsh*
I also make that pun in my head when anyone talks about the movie the Matrix.

Related Fact: Gauss is pronounced as "gOWce", NOT "gauze"

EDIT: Wait, I think it's called a Gauss turret because of this. Maybe it's both. Like a pun! Except only people with source code would get it.


\/\/ You're quote filters newline characters. I think it might be sick.
