Comment Re:Is all code like this? (Score 1) 502
I remember I couldn't find an elegant solution to a particular bit of code without using a goto, so I ended up with:
goto loop /* Sod Djikstra */
Just had a quick look at some of my old code on my laptop, and was amused to find the following:
# something tells me I am going to regret
# this "quick and dirty"
# approach to software development.
and
# fixing this code is like that game with the
# wooden blocks where
# you remove a piece one at a time until it all
# falls over.
I'd completely forgotten putting these comments in, so not only did they bring a smile to my face, they served a useful purpose by reminding me not to bother maintaining this piece of shit.
