1. Code that does exactly for what it was written. Some code that multiplies numbers while it was designed to add numbers is not perfect code definitely.

[Blog] [Silverlight Clone] [Resume]:-D Perfect code might mean different things to different people. For me perfect code is optimized for performance, for others it might mean it's optimized for readability. It's one of those gray areas.

Sorrry. The link I provided only for fun. I found it after googling my subject line. I really meant what is perfect code - written in a programming language.

[Blog] [Silverlight Clone] [Resume]Ah I see you want us to define perfection ? Given that code quality is multi dimensioned , and since it is unlikely that a maxima will occur for multiple variables at one point then you face the situaton where one parameter is at a maximum whilst another is not. Therefore a question such as this will in most cases be a matter of opinion . So the question is , what , in my opinion , would be the defining qualities of perfect code? Well that would depend on context and my knowledge of the problem at hand , which by definition is incomplete . So even if I said what perfection was , I am incapable of knowing that with 100% certainty it is in fact perfect . So in short I do not know what you want and even if I did I could not give it to you . Aside from that perfect code does not exist since there is no such thing as bug free software , only software that meets a requirment . :-D

No - he's not thinking, and we can hear him.

Code that can only be read by the intended recipient.

Well, if I say, "Add 2 and 2", and it returns "4", how can I tell whether it added or multiplied? On the other hand, if I say "Multiply 2 and 3" it may return "6" after performing "2+2+2", and I'm OK with that.

[Blog] [Silverlight Clone] [Resume]Cod that conforms precisely with its specification, where the specification conforms precisely with the known requirements.
