I believe my microwave is programmed in C. I threw in a Healthy Choice
chicken alfredo, with carrots and broccoli medley, seven minutes ago,
hit cook '5','0','0' and in the half light, mistakenly hit cook again.
Nothing happened. So I hit cook, 5, 0, 0, and then 'start' like a guy
who wants to eat.

It goes past five minutes and down to 4:49 before I say nay. I'm
uncertain whether that's a bad thing that my electronics did exactly
what it was told. EC

Try putting leading zeroes on your cooking time and see if you end up
with octal time.

I can't think of how I'd tell it were octal. I hit 'cook', '0','1','0',
'start', and it seemed to go for ten seconds. Any sequence I've touched
with 'clock' has resulted in error. EC
