Re^2: Which came first?

How about this proof?

#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;

my @creations = sort ('egg','chicken');
print "@creations\n";
__END__
[download]

Output: chicken egg

The real question is where did the rooster come from? I mean an egg will not produce a chicken, unless there is a rooster to fertilize it. So the original poll should be "chicken, egg, or rooster" ?

No, no, no. That can't be right! You'd have to sort by date of birth not name for that to work. Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

There are parthenogenic vertebrates, such as Komodo dragons, and it has been reported for mice, chickens, and turkeys. Information about American English usage here and here. Floating point issues? Please read this before posting. — emc	[reply]
