It's just a personal preference. A weak argument: If you write a program "grandma" should use, you can always add an extra check if she complains (and it will be only one of the many "extra checks"!). If you want the program to be more rough and scientist oriented, it will be one of only few "extra checks". _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
