        Document How Not Why: Document only the details of what a program does, not what it is attempting to accomplish. That way, if there is a bug, the fixer will have no clue what the code should be doing. LOL... I've done that when I am in a hurry. Tim Smith I'm going to patent thought. I have yet to see any prior art.

          Use OctalSmuggle octal literals into a list of decimal numbers like this: array = new int [] { 111, 120, 013, 121, }; Evil, evil, evil, evil... I like it :suss: - Nitron

                  I don't need to test my programs. I have an error-correcting modem. :laugh: Thanks for the URL Rok. This is the best laugh I've had in a long time! And the quote is worthy of a sig. QRZ? de WAØTTN
