Write in C ("Let
it Be")
When I find my code in tons of
trouble, Friends and colleagues come to
me, Speaking words of
wisdom: "Write in
C." As the deadline fast
approaches, And bugs are all that I can
see, Somewhere, someone
whispers: "Write in
C." Write in C, Write in
C, Write in C, oh, Write in
C. LOGO's dead and
buried, Write in
C. I used to write a lot of
FORTRAN, For science it worked
flawlessly. Try using it for
graphics! Write in
C. If you've just spent nearly 30
hours, Debugging some
assembly, Soon you will be glad
to Write in
C. Write in C, Write in
C, Write in C, yeah, Write in
C. BASIC's not the
answer. Write in
C. Write in C, Write in
C Write in C, oh, Write in
C. Pascal won't quite cut
it. Write in
C. ================================= YESTERDAY Yesterday, All those backups seemed a waste of
pay. Now my database has gone
away. Oh I believe in
yesterday. Suddenly, There's not half the files there
used to be, And there's a
milestone hanging over
me The system crashed so
suddenly. I pushed something
wrong What it was I could not
say. Now all my data's
gone and I long for
yesterday-ay-ay-ay. Yesterday, The need for back-ups seemed so far
away. I knew my data was all here to
stay, Now I believe in
yesterday. =========================================== Songs to program
by... Eleanor Rigby Eleanor
Rigby Sits at the
keyboard And waits for a line on the
screen Lives in a
dream Waits for a
signal Finding some
code That will make the machine do some
more. What is it
for? All the lonely users, where do they
all come from? All the lonely users, why does it
take so long? Guru
MacKenzie Typing the lines of a program that
no one will run; Isn't it
fun? Look at him
working, Munching some chips as he waits for
the code to compile; It takes a
while... All the lonely users, where do they
all come from? All the lonely users, why does it
take so long? Eleanor
Rigby Crashes the system and loses 6 hours
of work; Feels like a
jerk. Guru
MacKenzie Wiping the crumbs off the keys as he
types in the code; Nothing will
load. All the lonely users, where do they
all come from? All the lonely users, why does it
take so long? ================================== Unix Man
(Nowhere Man) He's a real UNIX
Man Sitting in his UNIX
LAN Making all his UNIX
plans For
nobody. Knows the blocksize from
du(1) Cares not where /dev/null goes
to Isn't he a bit like
you And me? UNIX Man, please
listen(2) My lpd(8) is
missin' UNIX
Man The wo-o-o-orld is at(1) your
command. He's as wise as he can
be Uses lex and yacc and
C UNIX Man, can you help me At
all? UNIX Man, don't
worry Test with time(1), don't
hurry UNIX
Man The new kernel boots, just like you
had planned. He's a real UNIX
Man Sitting in his UNIX
LAN Making all his UNIX plans For
nobody ... Making all his UNIX plans For
nobody. ======================== Something Something in the way it
fails, Defies the algorithm's
logic! Something in the way it
coredumps... I don't want to leave it
now I'll fix this problem
somehow Somewhere in the memory I
know, A pointer's got to be
corrupted. Stepping in the debugger will show
me... I don't want to leave it
now I'm too close to leave it
now You're asking me can this code
go? I don't know, I don't
know... What sequence causes it to
blow? I don't know, I don't
know... Something in the initializing
code? And all I have to do is think of
it! Something in the listing will show
me... I don't want to leave it
now I'll fix this tonight I
vow! |
