• For each of the following URLs:
– Explore it, try it out.
– Think about the following:
• How would you program it?
• What kinds of algorithms and data
does the program need?
• Would you consider the program
intelligent?

translations to or from that language.
• If you don’t try translating something into
another language and then back to English.
