I normally do not criticize other poster's misspelling--Lord knows I can misspelled with the worst of them--but in the context of your post your misspelling of disgusting is disgusting. :P

It always hurts to have a typo in a sentence which is supposed to make you feel smart, doesn't it?

He should of opted for:
public static long Factorial(long fact) { return fact == 1 ? fact : fact * Factorial(fact-1); }hope nobodies watching or this could end up answering some kiddies homework ;)P Think of the environment; please don't print this message unless you really need to.

what about the case of 0! = 1 I think you just ploughed into a stack overflow. :-D

Under pressure I probably would have had problems remembering how to do factorial because I haven't done in in like 3 years... That said the last time I did do it, I did it in MIPS Assembly (which could not have been any less fun).

:rose: MY sympathies. I had to do MIPS assembly in college too. While I fully understand not wanting to deal with the cheating that x86 would allow I can't think of any more useless language to've learned. Was the emulator still a pile of dog turds when you suffered through it?

My favorite part about the reader comments is how so many of them - confidently - misunderstand the code they're ripping apart. You don't get that much around here. Most of the posters are able to programmatically tie their shoes, so to speak.

Exactly! I don't always read the comments, so maybe it happens more than I know, but there seemed to be an excessive amount of those in that post :) Cheers, Mark

Hmmm....I wonder if that's the assembly I learned in college. It was so long ago I have no idea! I do remember I was doing Z80 assembly as a hobby and driving the professor nuts with questions totally unrelated to the course :) Cheers! Mark

I see that sort of thing almost everytime I read comments about WTFy homework/interview code.
