Greetings Vasile, You're up early and I'm up late I see...
Sure, we've made mistakes like you describe in the past, which is probably why my hair is thin, and white. About comments-- personally, I never read them -- I've never found a bug or fixed a bug in the comments. :-) My goals in writing code: 1) The purpose of the code should be obvious. 2) The code should be obviously correct. which usually leads to: the code is the simplest thing that could possibly work! It has been said that 'complexity compounds', but a friend of mine likes to point out that 'simplicity compounds also'.
