Thank you very much, Joel, Danny, Alan and Dave.
Your explanations are all very clear and very enlightening.
I shall have to change several of my unittests now. In good time.
I am particularly pleased with the examples; they clarify matters
considerably for me.
Out of subject, I wonder from this exchange whether teaching should not
always involve at least several teachers. Your replies are very
complimentary!
Your reply was very complimentary, our replies were complementary.
Notice the e instead of the i.
Yes, multiple teachers is frequently useful. When I was in college,
many classes had both a professor (lecturer) and assistant professors
(or teaching assistants, or ...). One lecture in a big hall, one
relatively small class where you could more easily interact. I found
the two different viewpoints useful, though sometimes the leaders of the
small class were almost afraid to challenge the full prof.
I also advocated a dual-manager role in one company. Idea didn't
formally go anywhere, but I did manage to escape from management -- went
from 50 people to 1, and a promotion at the same time.
