(so p and q are the ending points of the diameter of the circle)...

I've seen it in the context of classes. I suspect it means that the class could use being broken down into logical subunits, but I can't find a good definition. Could you give some examples?

Is PHP not considered a "real" programming language? What is a "real" programming language? Must a language be compiled to be taken seriously? Backgr...
I'm getting the feeling that there's is not such thing as inversion of control or rather the correct term is dependency injection. Am I wrong to assume this?
