Dave had sat in front of his computer for hours, bashing away at the various buttons. He was a man on a mission.
He had been given a program to work with that he had never even heard of before. "R". What kind of name was "R"? It could apparently do all kinds of fancy graphs and complex equations. Apparently.
Learning a computer program from scratch, when your supervisor admitted he didn't know how it worked, was not as easy as it sounded.
"Ah ha! I've got it!" Dave announced excitedly to his empty crisp packet.
Finally he was on his way and just a half hour later he had produced The Graph.
It was beautiful. It curled in and out of itself in a somewhat DNA manner, elegant and graceful. It was the result of hours of work and it was perfect in every possible way. Except one.
"Huh, was suppose to be a straight line..."
Back to the drawing board.
