Firstly, experience tells you how to develop systems that are testable. However, when push comes to shove, experience allows you to develop cognitive skills that can cope with lining up 5 or 6 ducks in order to get something working. Just so long as nobody interrupts you while you're juggling china ducks.

If you like C, wait until you see C#! It's what C++ was meant to be.:cool:
