These people always feared many great inventions like electricity in 19th century and of computer in late 20th century.Computer has become a great invention in the history of man.And now Man instead of trying on new legendry inventions , is keeping his mind occupied on infinite functions that a computer can perform.In this race , computer programming has become a indispensable for creating new functions...And With companies like oracle , microsoft in this industry,the industry of computer programming is over 100 billions dollars worth.
So , I here compile some of the interesting and famous computer quotes said by computer genii..
1:“Computers are like bikinis. They save people a lot of guesswork.”
