The CRT code is for study and personal use.

All the more reason to have included comments. I really don't appreciate you calling me ignorant. I don't work for Microsoft, and never have.

Calm down, you two. The charge of "ignorant" was leveled at the comment, not the commentator, though it was said in a way that I'm not surprised that the other person found annoying.

The original claim, that "Microsoft programmers don't comment their code" was too broad, and was also said in way that I'm not surprised that others found annoying.

Any large body of code written by many people will have a variety of commenting styles, short of some effort to systematically strip comments or some other mass enforcement. One or two published examples prove little.

Since I don't work at or for Microsoft, and by his own admission, neither does gcraig, neither of us can claim knowledge of such systematic stripping. Indeed such seems unlikely to me.

"I really don't appreciate you calling me ignorant."

Then stop making such ignorant accusations. If you don't like the reality that you made an ignorant statement then only you can change it.
