    Compilation means nothing to me; that can be the easy part. I am more worried about what compiled, that is still broken. Even with proper testing, bugs/errors gets through the cracks...never fails.

      Nope. "Payment received" is the happiest moment. :rolleyes:

        Successful compilation only means that the syntax is correct. This would also compile successfully:

        double sin30 = Math.Sin(30.0);

        but with a completely wrong answer if the programmer got confused between degrees and radians. Getting rid of logical errors is the tricky part, and is more time-consuming, and much more enriching.

          "0 Errors" is nothing - that's easy. "0 Errors, 0 Warnings" is better - but also pretty easy. Passing all tests and actually doing what you wanted it to? Now that's a good moment! (As is getting paid, as has been mentioned)

          Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

                Microsoft took that moment away from me. Now, there is this demon called "Intellisense" that will tell me what I did wrong almost before I do it.

                  Nope. That just leads you into a false sense of security. You still have to run it to make sure it isn't gonna puke all over your system, which definitely bumps up against the "It compiles - SHIP IT!" paradigm.

                      Compiles mean nothing. This compiles:

                      static void Main(string[] args)
                      {
                      int x = 10;
                      int y = 0;
                      int z = x / y;
                      }

                      If it's not broken, fix it until it is

                          Nah, if people want don't want Intellisense, they should use a command line. ;) Marc

                              All that means is that it is broken in ways that the compiler can't detect, so it's time to bash your head against the harder-to-find errors.

                                Wrong. When it runs successfully and does what it's meant to do without errors.

                                          Nope. "Payment received" is the happiest moment. :rolleyes:

                                          I'd rather be phishing!

                                          Agreed. Payment comes after post-installation testing by the client.

                                          The difficult may take time, the impossible a little longer.
