(Purdue University version)
CS 15900 or simply known as CS 159, formerly known in the past years as CS 156, or CS 158.
This computer programming course teaches the C Programming Language to first-year engineering students, first semester biomedical engineering students, or anyone whoβs interested in CODOing into one of the engineering schools at Purdue University, in the most obsolete and backwards way.
The course is well known for administering exams that basically make the test taker a human compiler by forcing them to trace code that breaks half of the course standards along with true and false questions that tricks the test takers as well.

npesta: That only works on opposite genders, Rule 159?

A BMW 3-Series competitor from Alfa Romeo. It was available with 1.75-litre turbocharged (TBi), 1.8- and 2.2-litre four-cylinder and 3.2-litre (JTS) six-cylinder petrol engines and 1.9- and 2.0-litre four-cylinder and 2.4-litre five-cylinder turbocharged diesel engines (JTDm). The 3.2 JTS and the 2.4 JTDm were available with four-wheel-drive (Q4).
The 159 was available with either a six-speed manual, or on the 2.2-litre JTS petrol engine, a six-speed "Selespeed" semi-automatic gearbox.
Two black 3.2 JTS 159s featured in the James Bond film Quantum of Solace. Both were ultimately destroyed.
Person A: "What's that car over there?"
