The name given to an early version of a
computer developed by the younger
students (notably
Ponder Stibbons) at the
Unseen University. Its (or his..)
cpu is an
ant farm, and its
hard drive is a
beehive. Develops throughout the latter half of the
Discworld series (by
Terry Pratchett) into almost an
AI. Has a great conversation with
Death in
Hogfather. Is known for such humourous
error messages as:
+++ Out Of Cheese Error. Redo From Start. +++
and+++ Divide By Cucumber Error. Please Reinstall Universe And Reboot. +++
