Lines of code written by HAB this week ....

It will confuse the permies for sure, fairly unreadable, definitely unmaintainable. An inspiration to all programming contractors out there.

I am the permie at the moment and it definitely confuses me.

[minestrone]

OK.

            return _series.Keys.ToList<DateTime>().FindIndex(delegate(DateTime t) { return (t == dateTime); });

Just remember - I'm not much of a programmer anymore.

This stuff doesn't have to be 'good' just come out with the right numbers.

That's the most productive you have been apart from the dumps according to your twitter!

Oh I see you have twittered about the line of code too - well done!

BTW is HAB on linkedin going to join the contractoruk group?

I've requested - lets see what happens

Still looking after idiots in Bangalore.

Try shooting them. Its only fair.

[NotAllThere]

OK.

No no no no no! (at least with my development manager hat on)

That leads to unmaintainable code, which is very expensive. Clear code is easier to debug, fix and enhance.

Of course with my contractor coder hat on, good code is not good as it doesn't lead to rework. So forget what I just said.

I'm a developer and I have written absolutely no code in the last week whatsoever. I did write an email though, if that counts, but it wasn't very long.

Had a good lunch today though.

I was tom first two days of the week. Spent the next three days trying to work out why a variable wasn't being return up the call stack and managing idiots in Bangalore.

Still haven't fixed the bug. Still looking after idiots in Bangalore.

Well done on your productivity. It's been really tough for me the last threee weeks doing nothing but looking mad busy

[jmo21]

OK.

            return _series.Keys.ToList<DateTime>().FindIndex(delegate(DateTime t) { return (t == dateTime); });

I would have split it up a bit for readability, and also to do a check that the ToList returns something.

good days effort though

[HairyArsedBloke]

Sod that. If you got a days pay for one (shortish) line of code then I'm well impressed.

I wish

It's the sum total of the progress towards a new product I'm working on. No revenue from it yet.

Reminds me of the old yarn about a structural engineer.

The client (Wimpey I think) came to this freelance engineer and asked him how they could reenforce a road bridge to take bigger lorries.

The engineer concluded that one h-section girder would need to be added to each section of the bridge.

The additional bracing girder would be indicated by exactly one line on the master drawing.

The engineer's invoice for the work was £12,501.25

The bridge contractor queried the invoice and asked for a cost breakdown.

The consulting engineer replied: -

- To adding a line to master drawing: £1.25
- For knowing where to add the line: £12,500.00

[HairyArsedBloke]

OK.

1.

It was a long line involving c# generics, predicates, 'n' stuff.

Add I did write a unit test; which it passed.

I was a bit 'tom' for the first half of the week and then I had to do some research on a related subject.

It's a good job I don't have to cut code for a living.

Post it then!
