ALAN’S MULTIPLE CODE CHANGES
by Hazed
Now that Alan has finished working on the code to auto-link third planets into the game, I wanted to know what he’d been up to, so I commed him and asked. “Well, I’ve just finishing putting in 2,838 changes,” he said.
Impressive, I thought. But what were those changes? I should have known better than to expect a sensible answer. “You would have to know C++ to understand what I’ve been doing,” he said.
He must have heard me growling under my breath because he expanded, “I was making changes that made it more difficult to make coding errors.”
Well, that sounds like good news. I asked Alan if it meant his code would be bug-free in the future.
His only response was, “Pah!” So I guess not.
