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.

I don't mind use of stored proc.. It is terrible when INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE done in the same stored proc and code is calling the same stored proc with only way to find what operation it is doing is via flag is a big fat FAIL !!!

Math is like love : a simple idea but it can get complicated.
