hmm.
I did programm structures.
Although I havn't seen actual c here is my translation.
instance.
An instance is the current thing running at that time, and previous instances
ofcause.
And well commands and interupts.
Its not all of it but I did 2 programming courses and I well I have some
knowledge.
But mail me off list I may attempt to learn all the studio things.
We will see.
