      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.

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

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

                                  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.

                                        Please meet Nagy, Hungarian UKIP sympatico. Unemployed for ages (about 1 year when I remember right). Eats every bacon and drinks every Gin in a 500 miles radius. And there was something with Paris, but I actually forgot what it was. Just don't mention her when he or his missus is around. Furthermore he really really really LOVES wand erection. And Justine Beaver.

                                          You know when Nagy said you'd be asked to pay for part of his bill? The last person who had to do this founded a new branch of mathematics to cope ...

                                          “Education is not the piling on of learning, information, data, facts, skills, or abilities - that's training or instruction - but is rather making visible what is hidden as a seed”
                                          “One of the greatest problems of our time is that many are schooled but few are educated”

                                          Sir Thomas More (1478 – 1535)
