Hi Gage, 

I’d like to invite you to read through our Code of Conduct <https://swift.org/community/#code-of-conduct> for the Swift community. While something may seem like a joke to you, it is not always the case for everyone. Please be mindful of this in the code that you write as well as the comments you make. From the Code of Conduct:

As contributors and maintainers of this project, and in the interest of fostering an open and welcoming community, we pledge to respect all people who contribute through reporting issues, posting feature requests, updating documentation, submitting pull requests or patches, and other activities.

We are committed to making participation in this project a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of level of experience, gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, age, religion, or nationality.

Thanks,
~ Kelly

I knew SOMEONE would have an issue with the "breaking machine," and I realized it could not be reached before typing it. I put it in there as a joke, nothing more (I've done worse in actual C).

I prefer to write things out, which is why there's not as many abstract concepts as some would like. I did as a test, just to see if it could be done. And the answer is yes, and that's good enough for me. The next time I plug in a formula I will consider these, but may not use them.
