That was right. Li Zhou planned to use the Han Language Programming Language in his mind to develop an Intelligent Assistant.
As a new programming language that only Li Zhou himself knew, he could not think of any better development tool besides using a TXT document.
Looking at the blank TXT document, Li Zhou felt that once he finished developing the Intelligent Assistant, he needed to start writing a set of development tools.
Developing a program often could not be done without libraries. Library files were a category of computer files that provided users with ready-to-use variables, functions, or classes. Library files were divided into static libraries and dynamic libraries. The difference between static and dynamic libraries lay in the program's linking stage: static libraries were copied into the program during linking, while dynamic libraries were not copied into the program during linking, but were dynamically loaded into memory by the system at runtime for the program to call. A dynamic library only needed to be loaded once by the system, and different programs could obtain copies of the same dynamic library in memory, saving a great deal of memory. Dynamic libraries also made modular program updates more convenient.
In an operating system, many applications did not consist of just one complete executable file. Most program modules were divided into relatively independent dynamic libraries. When a program was executed, its corresponding dynamic library files were called. An application could use multiple dynamic library files, and one dynamic library file might also be used by different applications. Such dynamic library files were called shared library files.
All right, when all was said and done, it came down to one sentence: without libraries, even if Li Zhou wrote the Intelligent Assistant's code, it would only be a barely readable block of text, utterly incapable of producing a program that could run on a phone or computer.
So before developing the Intelligent Assistant, Li Zhou still needed to start writing Han Language libraries one by one. However, he already had ready-made Han Language libraries in his mind, defined by the system. He only needed to be a code porter.
In the quiet Dormitory 609, apart from the rhythmic tapping of the keyboard, only the sound of the air conditioner's outdoor unit could be heard outside.
July weather was scorching, even at CHZU Academy, which stood at the foot of a mountain behind a scenic area.
Li Zhou enjoyed the cool breeze from the air conditioner as he comfortably tapped away at the keyboard. The Han Language library contained not only modern Chinese characters, but also ancient pictographs. According to the system's explanation, pictographs were the key to the birth of Artificial Intelligence.
Three hours later, it was already ten at night. Relying on the typing speed he had honed over twenty years of being single, Li Zhou finally finished transferring the complete Han Language library from his mind.
Looking at the Han Language library, which was less than one megabyte in size, Li Zhou let out a deep breath. Do not underestimate that less than one megabyte; the Han Language library's size of under one megabyte was precisely where the charm of the Han Language lay.
For example, "In winter, wear however much you have," and "In summer, wear however much you have." The same phrase, "wear however much you have," conveyed entirely different meanings. As native-born people of Xia Country, everyone understood that winter was cold, so naturally one wore as much as one had. Summer was hot, so one had to wear however much one had.
A foreigner, on the other hand, might be utterly baffled by this "wear however much you have." Just how much was one supposed to wear?
The advantage of the Han Language library was that it could "intelligently" determine from different contexts when to wear more clothes and when to wear fewer.
Li Zhou twisted his neck and stretched his body, stiff from sitting too long, then began refining the Han Language library. Although the library had already been defined, it still needed to be further encapsulated. That way, whenever he needed it in the future, he would only need to call its interfaces.
After changing the TXT document's extension to .fx, Li Zhou skillfully entered the computer's command-line interface. As he typed one command after another, a honeycomb-shaped image appeared on the computer desktop and began spinning without pause.
This constantly rotating honeycomb image was the refined Han Language library. Every honeycomb cell represented an interface. More than that, the rotating honeycomb image was itself a method of file encryption. Its display of "self-judgment" capability could fairly be called the rudimentary form of Artificial Intelligence. Li Zhou believed that cracking this "intelligent" file encryption method would be impossible for any country for at least the next fifty years. That estimate was made even on the premise that nations used supercomputers to crack it.
Perhaps some people would think that if supercomputer technology or some other technology made a breakthrough, then it could be cracked, could it not?
But would Li Zhou simply remain stagnant?
Besides, once Artificial Intelligence emerged, as a godlike presence on the internet, cracking it would surely become even harder.
Taking another step back, Li Zhou had never intended to hide the Han Language Programming Language forever. Once the time was right, he would eventually make it public. After all, what he needed was a complete ecosystem.
Li Zhou could already imagine how sought-after students studying ancient literature-related majors would become in the future.
At midnight, for a large portion of young people, nightlife had only just begun. Li Zhou was no exception. He had slept all day, and having just completed the Han Language library, he was at the peak of his sense of accomplishment. How could he possibly sleep while so excited?
What else was there to do if he was not sleeping? Naturally, develop the first generation of the Intelligent Assistant.
It was not until dawn, when the sky outside Dormitory 609 had begun to brighten, that Li Zhou finally put down his hands, which he could no longer stop from trembling. Even with his twenty years of single-man typing speed, he could barely endure an entire night. Fortunately, the first generation of the Intelligent Assistant had been completed.
Anyone unaware of the truth might have thought Li Zhou had stayed up all night writing a novel. In reality, development with the Han Language was just that simple for a developer who thoroughly understood Han Language culture.
Of course, Li Zhou's ability to finish development so quickly also depended on the advanced Artificial Intelligence development concepts in his mind.
For someone capable of building a complete rocket, making a bicycle was not something he could do with a wave of his hand?
Li Zhou encapsulated and encrypted the completed Intelligent Assistant, then packaged it into an .apk software installation package that could run on a mobile phone system.
After connecting the data cable between his computer and the latest Huawei Mate 30, Li Zhou opened the phone's developer mode and transferred the Intelligent Assistant installation package, which was only twenty-one megabytes in size, to his Huawei Mate 30 for installation.
Ignoring the phone system's security warning, he directly selected Install. The phone system would issue a security warning for software not from an official app platform, so it was fine to ignore it.
The next moment, the Huawei Mate 30 in Li Zhou's hand looked as though it had been hacked. Its screen went black, but in the very next second, countless streams of 0s and 1s began flowing endlessly across the screen. Li Zhou was not panicked in the slightest; he had known this would happen.
Li Zhou silently counted. After roughly ten seconds, the phone returned to normal.
