(In colloquial Finnish, the pronoun it is used for both people and things, so a Finnish-speaking professor would have had to explicitly say "books" or "things but not people".  I love this aspect of Finnish.  It is also a huge opportunity for dad jokes.)

Many people even with the textbook wouldn't pass a physics exam. Other matters are different, history for example, you don't have to understand a thing only memorize. But physics... if you don't understand it there's no way.
History requires no understanding? You must've had terrible history teachers.  :o

He's too busy repeating it, that he hasn't the time to stop and understand it!  :)
Funniest of all thread so far.

In German you could also say "alles was Beine hat" (everything that has legs)  to mean people or animals. And while you would say "alles und jeden" (everything and everyone) to be more precise, the German word "all" really is generic and not limited to things.

You think people get upset when you burn books.
Just imagine how they will feel when people wipe their butts with 1st editions of literature art :-DD

Oh, the "whys" of the datasheets... The information is there not to be an axiomatic truth, but instead each speck of data must be slowly inhaled while carefully performing a deep search inside oneself to find the true metaphysical sense...

Someone has to make this into a real program. Preferably with real voice.

Same thing to me. My signal processing theory professor was asked by some students what they could bring with them at the exams. His answer: Anything that you can drag in by yourself. 70% failed.

It may be a myth, but didn't a student bring Richard Feynman into one of his exams, because he fit (stood) on a single sheet of A4 paper?  (You can bring anything in that fits on a single sheet of A4.)
