    Here at work, different groups have been marking their territory with Symbols; lighting bolts and Ohms (Omega) symbols for the hardware guys; Various tools for the mechanical guys; But what are some software symbols? I’ve thought of some binary (10100) and possibly a snippet of assembly language, but that’s about it. So what are some symbols for software?

      On power switches, they have a symbol for 'On' and 'Off', which is kind of the embodiment of a 'bit' or 'true/false'...how about that?

Last time I saw him, he was running down the hallway Roach #1: (looking around) OMG! He's hanging on the wall with a spear in his head!!!! Roach #2: (turning away) I can't look. Roach #1: Disgusting. There is NO WAY I'm coming out from underneath this cabinet now Roach #2: I ... I ... I can't take it, I'm going to go take a hit of Raid and lay down. :rolleyes:

                                        Here at work, different groups have been marking their territory with Symbols; lighting bolts and Ohms (Omega) symbols for the hardware guys; Various tools for the mechanical guys; But what are some software symbols? I’ve thought of some binary (10100) and possibly a snippet of assembly language, but that’s about it. So what are some symbols for software?

                                        Just look at any pdb file and you will find plenty. This was the geekest answer so far :~

                                          If you want it to create an icon: From an end user point of view probably a package and a CD beside it, or a black monitor with green C codes inside it. No invention though. From programmers point of view you saw all sorts of innovations so far. I add my own: Maybe a lamp bulb half On(left half), half Off indicating 0 and 1 or an incomplete flowchart or a button or a menu with a mouse pointer clicking on it. Or you can draw me trying to understand the rush of new technologies, here: :confused: or this one: :omg:
