Software Development code, comments No Comments
I ran across this site this today via Stumble Upon. If you are a coder, you have got to check it out.
It is on the question/answer site stackoverflow.com, and the question asked was:
What is the best comment in source code you have ever encountered?
There are some real gems in there such as:
// sometimes I believe compiler ignores all my comments
// I dedicate all this code, all my work, to my wife, Darlene, who will
// have to support me and our three children and the dog once it gets
// released into the public.
//
// Dear maintainer:
//
// Once you are done trying to ‘optimize’ this routine,
// and have realized what a terrible mistake that was,
// please increment the following counter as a warning
// to the next guy:
//
// total_hours_wasted_here = 16
//
// Magic. Do not touch.
//When I wrote this, only God and I understood what I was doing
//Now, God only knows
So do yourself a favor and check it out, you won’t be dissapointed!
