you could argue that any low level programming language controls memory really...
so actually elbe - if you replace robotic with the word "stack" and hamster with the word "memory" - you win

Stacks in computing architectures are regions of memory where data is added or removed in a Last-In-First-Out manner.
In most modern computer systems, each thread has a reserved region of memory referred to as its stack. When a function executes, it may add some of its state data to the top of the stack; when the function exits it is responsible for removing that data from the stack. If a region of memory lies on the thread's stack, that memory is said to have been allocated on the stack.

Does the mackerel come in a sauce? A delicious, rich, tomato sauce? If so, I'll trade you the stale gingerbread man....
