Re:Obfuscated Perl's got nothing on this. (Score 1)

Now this is just insulting. If I was to throw C++, or Ruby, or Python up on the screen and you didn't know that language then of course it would look strange. To a Mumps programmer this is very easy to read. It's terse single letter commands makes writing and debuging the code very quick and easy. I would also add you picked a routine that was dedicated to a very difficult process of figuring out after a hospital stay what the patient owes for payment. So do you think it would be possible to make this easy to read in any language. Hell it isn't easy to understand when spoken in english
