From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
char /keir/ or /char/; rarely, /kar/ n.   Shorthand for    `character'.   Esp. used by C programmers, as `char' is C's typename    for character data.
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
core n.   Main storage or RAM.   Dates from the days of    ferrite-core memory; now archaic as techspeak most places outside    IBM, but also still used in the Unix community and by old-time    hackers or those who would sound like them.   Some derived idioms are    quite current; `in core', for example, means `in memory' (as opposed    to `on disk'), and both {core dump} and the `core image' or `core    file' produced by one are terms in favor.   Some varieties of    Commonwealth hackish prefer {store}.
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
cray /kray/ n.   1. (properly, capitalized) One of the line of    supercomputers designed by Cray Research.   2. Any supercomputer at    all.   3. The {canonical} {number-crunching} machine.          The term is actually the lowercased last name of Seymour Cray, a    noted computer architect and co-founder of the company.   Numerous    vivid legends surround him, some true and some admittedly invented    by Cray Research brass to shape their corporate culture and image.

Cor       This Hebrew word, untranslated, denotes a round vessel used as a       measure both for liquids and solids. It was equal to one homer,       and contained ten ephahs in dry and ten baths in liquid measure       (Ezek. 45:14). The Rabbins estimated the cor at forty-five       gallons, while Josephus estimated it at about eighty-seven. In 1       Kings 4:22; 5:11; 2 Chr. 2:10; 27:5, the original word is       rendered "measure."
