Chapter 34 (1/2)

Liang Shicheng replied to the man and sent his MSN number. At the same time, he noticed that the man's head was a foreign banknote named Flanker. After searching, the banknote was from the Soviet era.

Opening his historical records is all about helping people answer questions and dispel doubts.

Soon the other party added Liang Shicheng as a good friend. Without too much greeting, he came straight to the subject.

[where did you get that program? Did you write it? Or is it your friend?]

Seeing this person's anxious question, Liang Shicheng casually made up a reason.

[I picked them up from the junk market and found them very interesting. I collected them. Do you know anything about them?]

The man paused, as if he were typing,

[the thing is, the style of that program is very Russian, or Soviet.

I've seen this style before, but no one can use it in this era. People who can write this program should be older. And they are either researchers in the laboratory or people who serve the military.]

Liang Shicheng realized that he might have found some clues, so he immediately replied:

[how do you say that?]

After a while, the other party finally typed and sent it,

[in short, the Soviet Union had always maintained a huge gap with the United States in terms of computer hardware, but its military equipment had to be maintained at the same level as the United States.

In order to achieve this, they can only work hard on programming, so they found another way of programming logic. The requirements for hardware are very low, but the requirements for the intelligence of programmers are very high.

You can find that the code of the Soviet fighter's fire control system is always short and concise, which is to make up for the lack of hardware.

However, although the hardware is not as good as others, the final performance is not completely backward.

The only disadvantage of this system is that it is difficult to program. It is difficult for ordinary people to learn, so it is finally eliminated in the long river of history.]

Just after Liang Shicheng finished reading this sentence, the man continued to add:

[in the field of programming, there is a rule, degree of function, program operation efficiency and programming difficulty.

Only two of these three points can be retained.

If you want the program to be powerful, either the program runs very slowly and has high requirements for computer configuration, or you have to use more difficult methods to program.

Now the mainstream practice is to reduce the programming difficulty as much as possible and ensure the function of the program. Therefore, we can only rely on the soaring performance of the computer to solve the problem of program efficiency.

On the contrary, in the Soviet Union, the demand for hardware performance was reduced by more difficult programming under the same function.]

At the end of the dialogue, there seems to be a sense of trust between the two. Flanke requests a video call. Liang Shicheng agrees. Then he sees a white haired old man in a white coat, just like a scholar.

Then they continued to talk about some professional problems.

Liang Shicheng understood all these principles, but he politely pretended to be a new person to discuss them,

He remembers this phenomenon. The same game screen and the same computer configuration can increase the number of frames because of the optimization paid by programmers.
