Feedback for Programming Joke Submission

Strengths

Topic Choice: You picked a very popular theme in the coding world. Most people who work with computers will get what you are trying to say. This was a good choice for the assignment.

Areas for Growth

Joke Logic: The joke is meant to be a pun on binary numbers. In binary, the number two is written as '10'. Using the word 'three' makes the punchline lose its meaning. It confuses the reader.
Spelling and Grammar: You have a few typos like 'understant' and you are missing punctuation. These small errors distract the reader from the humor of your joke.

Next Steps

Fix the Pun: Change the number three to '10'. This makes the joke work because '10' looks like the number ten but actually means two in binary. It is the key to the whole pun.
Check Spelling: Use a spell checker or read your work slowly to find small mistakes. Be sure to capitalize the start of your sentence to make it look professional.
