Programming improves English (or your language) Grammar

More often than not I have found my email sentences to be terminated with semi-colons more than anything else.

No. I said I can't write improper english like, "hi wht r u doing?". I have usually started writing in passive voice and reduced use of active voices.

Do you mean that you can't write a sentence with the word "for" in it unless it has a "next", too?

I believe it does. I have been programming for 10 years and now I believe I can't write sentences without specific phrases. I can't write improper sentences. My hands stuck, keyboard refuses and cries out. Do you feel that too? :confused:

That's not English at all.

Maybe so - but years of using computers has left me with appalling hand-writing. My niece is only 6, but her writing's much more legible than mine! My nephew (like me) is more comfortable with computers, and his writing's appalling as well - a connection there, me thinks.
Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p

No. Instant Messaging and email has degraded my grammar. I used to be very good with grammar when I was in high school. Now I think I am pretty bad.

Nor if without then.

Why? The active voice is fantastic.

But you can still write useless things. I prefer useful info with wrong grammar & spelling than the contrary. (The best being useful info in correct grammar, but you find this as often as 100$ bills in the middle of the street).
/* Increase i by 1 */ i++;:rolleyes:'Useful info' with incorrect grammar or spelling is suspect, in my opinion, thereby rendering it less useful.
