Hi Everyone,
I think that this shows that we all have too much time on our hands!
You especially... but we appreciate it :)
As about 80% of development cost is in maintenance, then keep it
simple unless you really really need to change it for a good reason.
So DON’T CHANGE THIS!
I still think Bill's answer was superior, as it also accounts for
multiple threads/etc (although, not required in this case). Second to
that would be a (if blah > rah; print thing; blah = 0) ...as your tests
indicated.
On hard to read/complexity/whatver... I would argue that for a seasoned
developer, using boolean logic isn't anything tricky, nor hard to read
when used appropriately. If the hex figure scares you a little, you can
throw it into calc.exe to get the value, or even just comment it in.
Anyway... good work, all we need is a test to proove once and for all
that VB is superior to C#.
:P
