Another Microsoft puzzle to solve
By popular demand, here's another puzzle from Microsoft's College Puzzle Challenge yesterday. It was printed on the shirts given to the students at the beginning of the event. Again, the answer is a single word. The students weren't given a clue to help solve it, but if you're stumped, read on past the jump for a hint that might help. If you think you've solved it, post the answer in the comments below.
Here's the hint: Solving this one requires a very rudimentary understanding of computer science.
Also see earlier post: Can you solve this Microsoft puzzle? I'll post the answers to both puzzles, and point you to more puzzles from the event, after everyone has a chance to take a crack at these two.
[Update: Here are the solutions to this and the first puzzle.]
