Just a clarification: this is a joke. I didn't realize and I was like, this guy is the stupidest...oh. Haha.

Re: How NOT to program
I do think that this is funny, and the fact that some programmers didn't catch on right away is even funnier.

Re: How NOT to program
If Dilbert's Pointy-haired boss wrote code, that's exactly what he do (and worse).
Ya' gotta love over-encouragement. (and reverse psychology) |

Re: How NOT to program
Ignore messages:
They forgot to mention to always set the –Wall compiler flag. Don’t stop to think: OTOH, if you do, always think too much. Even if your loop is O n5, go ahead and write it out – you’ve got reams of paper. I don't want any trouble: Sure you do! Don’t forget about all those bucks that come from maintenance and support. Let’s not forget about job security either. Who’s going to fix it, a manager? Reading: Be very careful here. If you create something brilliant and present in a way that even your Prof. can understand, he will at best, mention you in his refereed article – or at worst, re-write in ADA and sell it to the Pentagon. Writing (Ibid) Plus, don’t forget that job security thing. Comments will only get you outsourced! Don't ask for help: Challenge your lecturer: Jeesh, they assume you even went to class. Be clever using electronic mail: Don’t forget, assuming it compiles, to attach the executable. Remind him to change the extension back from .txt to .exe, which most e-mail handlers would strip. This is especially true when your program causes catastrophic failure – you won’t have to look up how to spell catastrophic – he/she will recognize it immediately. Leave it all for the last minute: Duh? Who doesn’t? Cheat with your assignment: Not advisable, just cut-n-paste from many others’ work. Works best when friends think “modular.” |
