    I don't know why this popped in my mind, but on my way home from work, while listening to some music and thinking about some code I starting thinking about comparing the two. If a well written object oriented function were a symphony and an efficient hack - pop, what would rap be? I don't know where this stuff comes from.

                So in that case would the programmer be the composer and the compiler the conductor? I was listening to an SSIS package recently where the composer drags and drops all kinds of functionality into the score, could that compare to making techno tunes?

                        The 70's are mostly fuzzy to me. Not because of drugs, but mostly because of unfinished synapses. :)

                            Unfortunately you have forced me to think unpleasant thoughts. The song was also released, either as a 'B' side or album track, can't remember which, by 'He who shall not be named' (Lady in Red, nuff said, nudge, nudge, wink, wink!) Curse you DD. :mad:

                                      Hey yeah me too! (Must be a coders thing - I tend to find more programmers listen to heavy stuff than non programmers. I have absolutely no facts whatsoever to back up my statements, but, eh, what you gonna do??!) I've actually got some Slipknot CD's - their second album was the best, but now they've gone very soft and gash. Don't listen to them anymore - well, not unless it gets "shuffled" onto :)

                                        How do you write an object oriented function? :doh: As for the original question, rap would probably be something along the lines of useless comments. Good rap would be akin to useless comments infused with sarcasm and wit.

                                          I don't know why this popped in my mind, but on my way home from work, while listening to some music and thinking about some code I starting thinking about comparing the two. If a well written object oriented function were a symphony and an efficient hack - pop, what would rap be? I don't know where this stuff comes from.

                                          ASP.Net meets JQuery... Imagine the possibilities.

                                          wizard-generated code.

                                          Personally, I love the idea that Raymond spends his nights posting bad regexs to mailing lists under the pseudonym of Jane Smith. He'd be like a super hero, only more nerdy and less useful. [Trevel]
