What me a sinner? My variable names are not necessarily good, but at least they are long. I have used whatever it takes to avoid a simple goto. I have always tried to use a subroutine rather than repeating code (even when I know that some instances are likely to change in future versions). Why clutter my excellent code with comments? I am certainly open to reusing code. (To bad that I could never find exactly what I needed) My "clever" code makes it easy to see the bit picture at the expense of the details (or is it the other way around?) I read lots of programming books and manage to use every new trick I see. Most of my code is tested only with simple input. (Everyone knows that anything worth doing with a computer is to complicated to test more.)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
