> I don't really have time to type the entire book into an email for you. I'm asking why you think it's worth reading. Someone on a mailing list saying "read this" and expecting me to trust them is generally not a good enough reason for me to spend the time reading a book. Especially when the guy has said the kind of things you've said. You claim it will change my mind on the issue of code being self-documenting. I'm asking why you think that? Does the book genuinely say something notably unique, or are you just being dismissive and assuming I'm not aware of the usual arguments in favour of "self-documenting" code? _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list Devl@freenetproject.org https://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
