The Weird and The Wonderful

So the intersection of a row and a column in a table that uses this naming convention is an "rc", or 'arse"? I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

By chance was the case "4" a fall-through from cases above it? Not saying it's good coding practice, but that would sorta make sense then seeing the "if" statement. I hate crap like that.... Currently dealing with 20,000 line files with 5,000 line functions. X| X| :mad: I'm NOT exaggerating. #SupportHeForShe Government can give you nothing but what it takes from somebody else.

This program doesn't warrant that amount of effort. :D I'll have to ensure that my command line parser can remove the namespace when present, but this program doesn't use that anyway.

If I had a few weeks to study Jamie's code, I might be able to work out how to do that. :laugh: "These people looked deep within my soul and assigned me a number based on the order in which I joined." - Homer

Which is the reason that Microsoft wants to sell subscriptions and not products

Read the description of the forum above. That kind of question is better placed on the lounge or in a forum of the programming language used to interact with it, and not in "the Weird an the Wonderful". The spam can be considered because you are linking to a external paid product. You can ask exactly the same question without the link. If someone has played with it, (what you want to know), they will recongnise the name anyways, so no link needed. If someone didn't know it, the answwer is "no, I didn't play with it", no link needed anyways. I know you didn't mind it as spam, that's exactly why I told you it as a friendly warning. Other people could have reported you without saying anything. M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Yeah, it is interesting. It's really because it is an OS setting similar to what they do in Android OS. In Android OS to enable dev mode you had to tap on the Android About... item 7 times. It was odd.
