The results are in!

Just dropping a quick reminder to anyone who entered the 'Win a X-Box 360' student newsletter competittion, (it only took an e-mail to enter!)   that the results are in. The results will be in the next studentzine which will be out sometime today (it's in the oven, getting hard baked). So make sure you are signed up and  have your eye on the prize :)

If you aren't signed up to the newsletter you are missing some great stuff ;)
The newsletter is bumper fill on great articles this month: Sign up here!

  • A review (by yours truly) and tutorial on MSH / MONAD (Microsoft's very own BASH like command shell)
  • Dr. Andrew Sithers introduction to CIDER (not the drinking sort) and Expression
  • And a mystery article by one of our Microsoft Campus Clubs!

And the next newsletter is already being backed. Expect more Microsoft Student Partners than opinions in the house of Lords, more Imagine Cup than goals from 'insert football*' and something to do with the CLR, Python, Functional programming languages, and Lambda Calculus^

* Beckham?  Rooney? Mark Bosnich (on second thoughts maybe not)

    This may be a little fast as you haven't had the time to post about the new student zine, but I had a little go at the MSH script right at the end of the newsletter and I found that it prints a number with a difference from the previous number which is equal to the number two places up in a loop 50 times, if you get what I mean :)
