[edit] An 'unpopular' webcomic?

Do we have evidence to back this up, or is it an unencyclopedic assertion made simply to balance the "popular" bit. This article really is a mess. --Tom Morris 15:58, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Which term does the wheel refer to?

A wheel can be a gear, a vehicle's wheel, a round shape device like a bobbin. I thought it refers to a gear in regard of the complexity and the famous movie of Charlie Chaplin's, Modern Times. The Japanese article of Wikipedia, however, tells it's a tire of a vehecle. Is it so? BTW, I somehow am prohibited to edit the Japanese Wikipedia at all. tosendo (talk) 03:30, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Bubble Sort?

I am certain that Java does not have bubble sort in its library and I do not think C++ has any neither. It is such an inefficient algorithm that it has no practical use. These languages do provide much better sorting algorithms such as merge sort and quick sort. su88 (talk) 02:03, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
