      I'm pretty sure this was posted in the last couple of weeks.

      I was brought up to respect my elders. I don't respect many people nowadays.

        No. $jam=1; if(GotEggs) { GetSix(); } Any competent programmer would ask what GetSix should do.

          The problem of being a programmer.......is that they tend to flood codeproject with old jokes they have found on the web.

            Jam comes in Jars. Plus it is older than Methuselah.

                                          I don't see that definition in the spec, so you should probably have clarified it with the BA/PM/Client (delete as applicable). If you coded it before understanding the spec you'd be an idiot.
