      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

                  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.

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

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

                                "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)

                                  This is only true if it isn't you first time building the code. If you get zero errors on the first try, paranoia begins.

                                        Debugging is the creative part. Successful Compiling is great, but I enjoy debugging a lot more. Debugging leads to better code as well as working code when you iterate through each debugging session. Creating the initial code is often a free flow of ideas when the algorithms and specifications are created. I treat programming like writing an article. I get the ideas down and assume I will be improving them iteratively. I don't like to over-think and block the code flow. This works well in a small group that can be creative. This would not work well for larger projects and larger groups, of course. I work in a small group with limited constraints on creativity. I try to stay object-oriented, concise, and well-documented. Coding should be fun and enjoyable. Maybe that is why I like small independent projects. Less structure, more fun!? I suspect I am like many Code project members. That is why I keep coming back to Code project and sites like stack overflow. Or maybe I just had too much coffee this morning.
