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.

An interesting twist on the word. I have seen it stated another way though rarely. The more general statement is an object is a set of one or more instances. I am not sure I like this definition. I would prefer to talk about classes and sub-classes.

A class is much more than just properties. It is also methods. Methods that can modify the properties. Methods that can extract other meanings from the properties.
So many years of programming I have forgotten more languages than I know.
