    I saw this in a recent programming forum. It's probably time for him to call it a day... "...one thing that confuses me with programming is putting lines in the correct order."

        You mean you can't just write them in reandom order and expect it to work?? :omg: Maybe that's been my problem all these years! :-D

            Before OOP most compilers were just top down in the order the lines appeared. Now with OOP line order isn't as important (calling order of course is) so perhaps that is where the confusion is. Still, hard to believe. :)

              Not a problem with BASIC. :cool: Of course, proper modern languages don't use lines at all. Which can make things easier, or not.

              You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

                Really bad. As it was a post to a C64 forum, and it is about programming in BASIC, the answer should actualy be simple: ascending by line number.

                  Use a declarative style and it doesn't matter so much, as long as the values you need in a line are defined on values higher up.

                        Of course it won't work! You "just write them in reandom order" and ask in QA to get it fixed

                          Interesting, Grieg's Piano Concerto is my favorite, just so sad to see such a beautiful piece treated so badly. Dave.

                            Just another way of saying, "WTF am I doing?"

                            You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun
