A master was explaining the nature of the Tao to one of his novices.
"The Tao is embodied in all software—regardless of how insignificant," said the master.
"Is the Tao in a hand-held calculator?" asked the novice. "It is," came the reply.
"Is the Tao in a video game?" continued the novice. "It is even in a video game," said the master.
"And is the Tao in the DOS for a personal computer?" (This holds true for Windows as well)
The master coughed and shifted his position slightly. "That would be in the stack frame Bob, and the lesson is over for today," he said.
—Geoffrey James, The Tao of Programming
