I was a FORTRAN and ASSY programmer - retired now. Funniest piece of code I ever debugged had a comment, “You should never get here”
“Funniest piece of code I ever debugged had a comment, You should never get here.
The worst piece of code I had to maintain was given to me by a very ‘bright’ and clever programmer that used to modify OP codes in assembler.
MY favorite as a COBOL programmer was the random ***DO NOT REMOVE THIS COMMENT*** that is somewhere in almost every single COBOL system.
The scary thing was, remove that comment and the program crashes.
