There can be only a single instance of a singleton. The advantage is that all users communicate with the same object without having to explicitly pass a reference to the object through out the code or using a global variable

I know that I post out of topic, but what is this Mardi Gras thing. I heard so many times about Mardi Gras. Is it a day of celebration in New Orleans?

Not to take this too off topic. Funny you should ask that. According to my calander (it's a "stupid fact a day" type):

Mardi Gras means "Fat Tuesday", signifying the last day before the Lenten fasting season.

So, it's a day to stuff yourself, before you have to fast! ;)

Mardi Gras is a traditional holiday celebrated in many of the southern states of the USA. The most famous celebration takes place in New Orleans, Louisiana. The people there enjoy this celebration by going to parades where they catch "beads, doubloons, cups, and trinkets" that are all thrown from floats.

They have masquerade balls and dress up in costumes for these events. King Cakes are eaten during this holiday. Mardi Gras is known as the "biggest free show on earth."
