is there a website that has information about moss?

A System for Detecting Software Plagiarism\n\n \n\nWhat is Moss?\nMoss (for a Measure Of Software Similarity) is an automatic system for determining the similarity of C, C++, Java, Pascal, Ada, ML, Lisp, or Scheme programs. To date, the main application of Moss has been in detecting plagiarism in programming classes. Since its development in 1994, Moss has been very effective in this role. The algorithm behind moss is a significant improvement over other cheating detection algorithms (at least, over those known to us). \n\n \n\nLanguages\nMoss can currently analyze code written in the following languages:\nC, C++, Java, C#, Python, Visual Basic, Javascript, FORTRAN, ML, Haskell, Lisp, Scheme, Pascal, Modula2, Ada, Perl, TCL, Matlab, VHDL, Verilog, Spice, MIPS assembly, a8086 assembly, a8086 assembly, MIPS assembly, HCL2. \n\nNews\n4/24/04 A serious bug was found and fixed in the network-based submission script a few weeks ago. No recent reports of problems with the network-based script have been reported.\n10/25/03 There are currently two versions of Moss available: the old email-based system and a new network-based system. The network-based moss does not use email for transporting submissions and replies, and instead a direct network connection is made to the server. This design is both more efficient and easier to install and use (especially on Windows systems).\n\nThe network-based system is still in beta. By default, when you register for moss you receive a submission script for the network-based Moss. If you have problems (and there are believed to be some bugs still in the new version) you can download the submission script for the email-based Moss and use that instead.\n\n\n\n \n\nAn Internet Service\nMoss is being provided as an Internet service. The service has been designed to be very easy to use--you supply a list of files to compare and Moss does the rest.\nYou can use Moss from either Unix or Windows systems. To use the Windows submission script you will need to replace the script you receive via email with the Windows version (see instructions for downloading scripts below). \n\nIn response to a query the Moss server produces HTML pages listing pairs of programs with similar code. Moss also highlights individual passages in programs that appear the same, making it easy to quickly compare the files. Finally, Moss can automatically eliminate matches to code that one expects to be shared (e.g., libraries or instructor-supplied code), thereby eliminating false positives that arise from legitimate sharing of code. \n\n\n \n\nRegistering for Moss\nMoss is being provided in the hope that it will benefit the educational community. Moss is fast, easy to use, and free. In the past, access has been restricted to instructors and staff of programming courses. This is no longer the case, and anyone may obtain a Moss account.\nHowever, Moss is strictly for non-commercial use. If you are interested in commercial uses of Moss, contact Similix Corporation. \n\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\nDefinitions of moss on the Web:\n\ntiny leafy-stemmed flowerless plants \nwordnet.princeton.edu/perl/webwn\n\nMosses are a type of simple or non-vascular plant. They can be distinguished from the apparently similar liverworts or Marchantiopsida (formerley the Hepaticae) by their multi-cellular rhizoids. Other differences are not universal for all mosses and all liverworts but the presence of clearly differentiated stem and leaves, the lack of deeply lobes or segmented leaves,and the absence of leaves arranged in three ranks all point to the plant being a moss. \nen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moss\n\nThe mobile submarine simulator (MOSS) is a sonar decoy used by submarines of the United States Navy. It is a 21-inch torpedo, without an explosive warhead, butable to generate a strong sound signature recorded to be extremely similar to that of the launching submarine. \nen.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOSS\n\nsmall, leafy plants that do not produce flowers or se

i dont know what BioGeek is talking about but as far as i know phylum bryophyta refers to mosses\n\nBryophytes used to be classified as three classes of a single phylum, Bryophyta. Modern texts, however, now assign each class to its own phylum: Mosses (Bryophyta), Liverworts (Hepatophyta), and Hornworts (Anthoceraphyta). This reflects the current taxonomic wisdom that the Liverworts and Hornworts are more primitive and only distantly related to Mosses and other plants.

The name of the moss which is the Bryophyte, is Polytrichum.Which is a gametophyte.It occurs in the moist coniferous forests; widespread across Northwestern Ontario and boreal forests; cosmopolitan.It is a dark green, robust, unbranched, 4 - 15 cm tall or more; single-sexed, males have enlarged heads at plant tips, females produce sporophytes; lower portion covered by grey rhizoids. Leaves - 6 - 10 mm long, lance-shaped, sharply pointed; spread at right angles when moist, erect-flattened and rolled when dry; membranous, sheathing base; edges coarsely toothed; midrib covered on inner surface with 20 - 55 vertical tiers of cells (lamellae) 4 - 9 cells high, each tier ends with U-shaped cell.The sporophytes - common, at plant tips; stalk wiry, very long; capsules horizontal, 4- sided, 64 short, rounded teeth and expanded central membrane around capsule mouth; capsule hood has tuft of hair at tip, covers entire capsule.\n\n The hair-caps are the largest unbranched mosses in western Canada. Common hair-cap could be mistaken for alpine hair-cap (Pogonatum alpinum, also called Polytrichastrum alpinum), but that moss has round (not square) capsules. Tea made from common hair-cap was once taken to dissolve kidney and gall bladder stones. Based on the Doctrine of Signatures, this moss should be good for the hair, so a strong tea of common hair-cap was used as a rinse to 'strengthen and beautify' ladies' tresses. *The stems of common hair-cap often reach 30 - 45 cm or more in length. when the leaves are removed, the central stems form tough, pliable strands that have been used to make brooms and brushes or have been woven or plaited to make mats, rugs, baskets, and hassocks. Apparently this was quite an art in ancient Europe. A hair-cap moss basket from the remains of an early Roman fort at Newstead, England, dates from 86 AD.

Have you tried http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page they have info about anything.

Spore bearing would be acceptable in this case.  Also, moss is not a fungus.

They are all known as "Bryophytes." Links below explain.
