It's also a loop, some print statements and a couple of comparisons with booleans. A nice little package and one of the test pieces I do when I'm learning a new language.

Yeah, when did they start caring about the workers?

Gastro-Intestinal aka the bit between the mouth and the anus. This stuff shows up (contrasts) on x-rays. Upper studies involve drinking it. Lower studies involve insertion from the other end. In other words, it's used for testing gut disorders and if you aren't swallowing it, you can shove it up your arse.

Oh my god, they forced you to get a Hotmail account. How many did you already have? As for installed crapware, it's just a right-click to uninstall. No uninstaller prompt BS any more.

Maybe you can provide translations for "whoosh".
