A mathemetician, an engineer, a computer scientist, an assembly language
programmer, and a lawyer all went off to Africa to hunt elephants.

The mathemetician caught every animal he found, and threw out all the
animals that didn't look like elephants.

The computer scientist began walking from Cape Town to Cairo, traversing the
continent from East to West and back, picking up every animal and putting
them in a large cage that he was dragging along behind him.  When he was
done, he examined each and every animal until he found an elephant.

The assembly language programmer used the same method, except he crawled on
his hands and knees and used tweezers to catch the animals.

The Engineer wandered around elephant preserves with a big gun looking for
animals that were apporoximately 15 feel tall and approximately 5,000
Kilograms, plus or minus 50%.

The Lawyer didn't hunt any elephants.  He would simply follow along behind
elephant herds arguing about who owned the leavings.
