The Weird and The Wonderful

   

The Weird and The Wonderful forum is a place to post Coding Horrors, Worst Practices, and the occasional flash of brilliance.

We all come across code that simply boggles the mind. Lazy kludges, embarrassing mistakes, horrid workarounds and developers just not quite getting it. And then somedays we come across - or write - the truly sublime.

Post your Best, your worst, and your most interesting. But please - no programming questions . This forum is purely for amusement and discussions on code snippets. All actual programming questions will be removed.

Let's be positive about this one:

1. there IS an interface, supporting loosely coupled designs
2. it is public, everyone could use it
3. its name starts with capital I
4. all parentheses and brackets are nicely balanced
5. the elipses show where the comments could go
6. maybe documentation will be added eventually?
