Personally, I'd be inclined to extend that list to include vague comment, trivial comments, ambigous comments. And if you ever need to comment on *how* a function works, the function is too complex and should be refactored. Spend your time making the code readable instead. (Readable code is more important than correct code -- readable code with bugs can be made correct, with unreadable code you can never be sure of its correctness.) </rant> :-) -kzm -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
