"Quality Software" is NOT mutually exclusive with "pointer arithmetic"? I would contend that you can have quality software with pointer arithmetic, or no software at all. I would contend that you can write quality software without being a language bigot, or you can program in a high level language; but not both. -- sanders The 11th commandment: "Thou shalt use lint" For every message of the day, a new improved message will arise to overcome it.
