Searching for a quoteYears ago I read a quote regarding non-local effects in programming which said something along the lines of: Writing a computer program is like building a skyscraper where, if the fit of the door to the janitors cupboard in the basement is wrong, the whole building could collapse. (of course, that only applies if you're using a language which allows non-local effects :-) I've been struggling to locate the reference, though - does it ring any bells for anyone here? Failing that, can anyone point me at a similar quote? Thanks in advance! Paul. By paul_butcher at 2007-10-27 14:07 | LtU Forum | previous forum topic | next forum topic | other blogs | 8908 reads
