    I have seen worse Russian code. Best thing to do with monster code is to use some reflections on it.

            In fairness, a lot of bad implementations are done in other languages, I dare say there are as many shocking apps developed in C# as there are VB.Net.

                I third that. I have seen far too much bad code in many languages. :sigh: Bill W

                Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

                      Most code is like Dr.Frankenstein's mosnter. The only difference between good monster and bad monster is the good one has it's legs and hands and all else where they should be.

                        :WTF: is your problem?? All I did was bring up something I saw in a documentery about artillery and it's reliablilty and maintainability, and you think I'm picking on the Germans? Dude, back then, during the war, they tended to over-engineer their weapons. That's all I'm saying...

                        that's just too funny. I guess he's a bit cranky. I happen to be a bit of an armor historian buff, and the big, bad German tanks of ww2 were mostly junk. Credit to the 88 and the high velocity 75, but reliability is everything. The Tiger 2 and Panther broke down at horrendous rates. The panther's armor was spotty at best with mediocre quality of the armor plate, etc. Kelly's Heroes Tiger Tank - YouTube[^] Reliability was key. So, I appreciate the comment on the complexity of the arty pieces. I just wish some of the defense contractors in the US would learn.
