PACHYDERMIC PERSONNEL PREDICTION
Peter C. Olsen (BYTE, Sept. 1989)
A BOLD NEW PROPOSAL FOR MATCHING HIGH-TECHNOLOGY PEOPLE AND PROFESSIONS
(Part 2)
Computer scientists hunt elephants by exercising Algorithm A:
1. Go to Africa.
2. Start at the Cape of Good Hope.
3. Work northward in an orderly manner, traversing the continent
alternately east and west.
4. During each traverse pass,
a. Catch each animal seen.
b. Compare each animal caught to a known elephant.
c. Stop when a match is detected.
Experienced computer programmers modify Algorithm A by placing a known
elephant in Cairo to ensure that the algorithm will terminate. Assembly
language programmers prefer to execute Algorithm A on their hands and knees.
Engineers hunt elephants by going to Africa, catching gray animals at random
and stopping when any one of them weighs within plus or minus 15 percent of
any previously observed elephant.
Economists don't hunt elephants, but they believe that if elephants are paid
enough, they will hunt themselves.
Statisticians hunt the first animal they see n times and call it an elephant.

"He who lives far from neighbors may safely praise himself."

"On maths tests, I don't think they should have 'answers' - they should have
'impressions.' If we get a different 'impression' than everyone else, so what?
Can't we all be brothers?"
