The Weird and The Wonderful

   

The Weird and The Wonderful forum is a place to post Coding Horrors, Worst Practices, and the occasional flash of brilliance.

We all come across code that simply boggles the mind. Lazy kludges, embarrassing mistakes, horrid workarounds and developers just not quite getting it. And then somedays we come across - or write - the truly sublime.

Post your Best, your worst, and your most interesting. But please - no programming questions . This forum is purely for amusement and discussions on code snippets. All actual programming questions will be removed.

And all VB articles to Purgatory, pending portation to C#?

It's not that bad. It's simple enough for people like me to use it, and there's so many inefficient C based programs it's becoming hard to tell the difference :-P.

I'll have another one soon, I'm porting and completing the VB6 version to VB .NET which should be a right laugh. At least I intend to use GDI for it this time, and use some optimised methods of dropping images.

If any of my future employers see this...[crosses fingers]
"Yes boss, I learned from my mistake"
"No boss, I haven't learned C++"


Yet another spam post on yet another forum!
I am the lazy one, who sleeps as it suits him, codes what he wishes, and has many years to look forward to.
I love being a student.
