+// There are many quirks in the source code which have overarching behavioral differences from
+// a number of other files. For example, diploma.c seems to declare rodata before each use while
+// other files declare out of order and must be at the beginning. There are also a number of
+// macros which differ from one file to the next due to the method of obtaining the result, such
+// as these below. Because of this, there is a theory (Two Team Theory) that states that these
+// programming projects had more than 1 "programming team" which utilized different macros for
+// each of the files that were worked on.
