3 Answers
Help with these 2 please.
4dn - Often chip endlessly malfunctions in computer science. (8) .
I have - "i?f?t???". I guess that it ends in " t" , as in IT?
18 across - Really, really strong community in current trap. (2,6)
I have " i? e?f???" , so it could be - "in effect" , but I can't see the reason behind the clue?
Many thanks in advance.
