Tough Programming Problems in SHE (C)

Evening time-Just after sunset while things are still visible without lights/bulbs. (oh reader..common... this is the original bulb) .

Gin and R are walking along the road to college from the hostel . As usual the conversation begins at a pointless point.

R : "Machan"

Gin : "Solda"

R: "Indha road kku yenda 'beach' road nnu peru"

Gin: " indha road kku 'beach' road nnu peru nnu unakku evan sonnan?"

R : "adhu namakku theva illa... indha road kku 'beach' road nnu peru nnu assume pannikittu sollu... indha road kku yen beach road nnu perunnu"

Gin: "dei... en moonjiya paathaa epdi irukku unakku"

R: " un moonjiya pathi ippo namakku theva illa... naan ketta kelvikku mattum badhil sollu"

Gin: "enna da aachu unakku?"

R: "enakku enna aachunnu ippo namakku..."

Gin: "niruthuda *** "

R: ""

Gin: ""

Silence prevails for two mins. They both reach the hostel gate without talking a word and come out of it.
They look at each other.

Gin: "machaan sorry da"

R: " free a vidu... thappu pannitta.... thirundhi mannippu kekkara...mannichi vittudaren"

Gin: "Dei... naan sorry adhukku sollala da"

R: "aprom?"

Gin: "kaasu kondu varadhukku badhilaa unnoda ID carda kondu vandutten da ... ippo NMB poga mudiyaadhu" [for people who don't know, NMB is the internationally acclaimed food court near the hostel where Gin and R stay. In simple tamil it is called as "pekary"]

R: "muttal... ippo ennada pandradhu"

Gin: "unnoda ID carda adagu vechaalum oru fruit cake kooda thara maataney da NMB la"

R: "dei.. comedy pannaama yosi da"

Gin: "machan.... ketta nerathulayum oru nalla neram da"

R: "enna da solra?"

Gin: "anga paaru da... yaarunnu"

R looks at the direction that Gin points towards.

R: "dei.. P da.... dei... unakkey kevalamaa illa... ava kitta poi pathu rooba kodunnu kekka solriyaa.... ennoda prestige enna aagaradhu"

Gin: "machan... pathu rooba nnu yen kekkara...ten bucks nnu kelu da... prestige maintain aayidum"

R: "nakkal pannaadha da"

Gin: " idhukku dhaan nee innum yennoda sishyanaavey irukka... opportunity knocks the door only once ... to open the door or not is totally under our control"

R:(hand over mouth) "ennada periya vaartha ellam pesara"

Gin: " dei.. ava kitta poi kaasu ketta unnoda prestige korayumnu enakku theriyaadhaa... naan unna apdi panna vittuduvenaa?"

R: "ennada romba nallavanaaitta"

Gin: "dei... mattera solren kelu... ippo NMB poi onnum panna poradhilla... P college kku poraa... ithana manikku mela kandippa lab kku C program poda dhaan povaa... neeyum lab kku po ... avalukku array la problem nnu kelvi patten... nee poi help pannu"

R: "avalukka array la problem... chancey illa... enakku therinjey ava pala pasangala kannathula palaaarnu 'array'njirukka da... "

Gin: "loosu maari pesaama po"

R: "ippo polaangariya"

Gin: "dei... seekiram poda... namma pasanga neraya perukku 'arrays' la strongu "

R: "aahaa... seri odaney poren... ID carda kodu"


R enters college while Gin walks casually towards NMB [reason left to the imagination of the reader].



P enters lift.
[two minutes later]
R takes the stairs.

P reaches 4th floor.
[two minutes later]
R reached 4th floor.

P opens glass door and enters lab.
[two minutes later]
R extends his hands to open the glass door. But then at the corner of his eyes, he sees someone outside far away messaging in a mobile. He suddenly realises that it is 'none but Gin' and is shocked to death. Gin messaging someone !! mysterious ! He now watches gin walking on the road more carefully and in the meantime opens the door and ......

PHHHAATTTT....
DDDAASSHHHHH....
DAMAMAMAMAMAMAMA....

A series of unworldly sounds that can come only from a girls hands when she slaps a guy on the face back and forth is heard. R realises in terror that his cheeks are paining and so the guy involved can be only him.... he turns towards the door in horror to see the state of things...

He sees the rowdy girl E - his classmate....

"Hi E ... how are you"



"Enna E... oru maadhiri irukka ... any problems??"



"Inga yaaro yaaraiyo adichaa maari..." . He realises that instead of holding the doors knob, he is holding E's hands.

"E ... E ... "

"kaiyya edukariyaa illa HOD kitta complaint pannava?"

"oh... appo kayya eduthaa HOD kitta complaint panna maatiyaa ...romba romba thanks... aala vidumaa saami"

R runs back to the stairs without a stop. As he reaches the ground floor in the 18th second from when he started, his cellphone beeps twice.

Message Number 1:

Sender - P
Message - "ha ha"

Message Number 2:

Sender - Gin
Message - "Enna machan... 'Hands on' Arrays training aa ...kalakku"
