array size

Definitely. :-D

Now you have me confused. Does this not show the correct array size when it is run? Seriously, who knows what he thought he was doing. Sometimes everyone does not see the forest anymore because of all the trees. Things like that have happened to me, usually after editing the code several times in a hurry, leaving senseless relics like this appears to be.

A while ago he asked me what he should have printed on my business cards. I said 'Wizard'. I read books which nobody else understand. Then I do something which nobody understands. After that the computer does something which nobody understands. When asked, I say things about the results which nobody understand. But everybody expects miracles from me on a regular basis. Looks to me like the classical definition of a wizard.

Actually, it does. But I think the probability that j is equal to a.length at the end of the loop is very high.

20 years "experience" means also 20 years of not getting a promotion (getting boss or manager) :wtf: By the way I have also a lot of "experience" in that way...

I sure know that. Irony does not communicate well in a post :-))) To me it just looks like the loop previously contained some code which got edited away, leaving this construction. Even then, using the counter variable may be a valid, but not very wise choice.

never ever trust CLR. Who knows if it right about the array size...

Hahaha, classic :D

Yeah, we can only hope you don't trust the processor to handle your computations either - I made that mistake a long time ago. I handle all of mine now at the binary level.

Now that you mention it... taken to the extreme this means building your own processor from discrete parts, building the rest of the computer the same way around it and then starting on an own operating system. This will be one slow and bulky contraption, so much is sure. Never trust a computer that you have not personally misconstructed and misprogrammed, like in the good old days.

Reminds me of "The story of Mel" : I had been hired to write a Fortran compiler for this new marvel and Mel was my guide to its wonders. Mel didn't approve of compilers. "If a program can't rewrite its own code," he asked, "what good is it?"
