            I just keep reading it, my mouth agape. I've read three pieces of code in the past 24 hours that look like this!

            I wish I could send you some of the code I'm reviewing currently but I can't due to a confidentiality momerandum. The above snippet looks like an oasis to me :wtf:

              if (doc.status==3)
              {
              // With this Status, nothing should be done here.
              }
              else if (doc.status == 2 || doc.status == 1)
              {
              AddDoc(doc);
              }

              Finish();

                At times, when I have found things like this, I agree my first intent is to go find the person that wrote the code, but then, I sometimes stop and think, who REVIEWED IT and ALLOWED it into the code-base to start with? The does of course mean that you have a review cycle as part of your policies... Been to many places that don't, and then, yes, I run through the halls creaming for the head of the the programmer... and then use it as an example as to why they should implement code reviews :)

                      You guys are very punny. :laugh:

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