Just came across these acronyms … mostly names of open source softwares…but there’s something special in them … they are recursive !!! some famous recursive acronyms are
1. GNU – GNU is Not Unix. (Software collection)
2. Cygnus – Cygnus Your GNU Support. ( A Software company)
3. EINE – EINE Is Not EMACS. (A text editor)
4. ZWEI – ZWEI Was EINE Initially. (Another text editor)
5. LIAR – LIAR Imitates Apply Recursively. (A scheme compiler)
6. WINE – WINE Is Not Emulator. (A windows emulator(like) for Linux)
7. EMACS – EMACS Makes A Computer Slow. (A famous text editor written by RMS).
8. XINU – XINU is not Unix.
9. PHP – PHP Hypertext Preprocessor. ( Server side web scripting language)
10. LAME – LAME Ain’t an MP3 Encoder.
One famous real world, non-technical example (We have all heard it but most of us don’t know it’s an acronym) is VISA.
VISA stands for VISA International Service Association.
I hope it was interesting.
