What was the funniest comment you ever read in code?


 

I'll share two.

 

While "refactoring" some complex code for a medical device verification test I received an error message "Something is seriously wrong! (Remember to change this message when you figure out how this happened)"  I called the original developer-  and got "OH! That again?"  Before you go guessing Yes, there WAS a Local Variable in the code. 

 

Check out the Default value for the Agilent 3458A display.vi.  This VI changes the DDMM's front panel display that normally shows the value of the latest meter reading to "Hmmm...BEER"  Funny, unless you are developing code during an FDA Audit- and the message is left visable to the auditor.  I had to address the "Finding" with supporting evidence.

Those were good.  Wish I kept some of the ones I wrote back in the telecom years...

Things like

/* this is Voodoo.  You touch this and you'll be cursed for the rest of your life */

 

One of the top programmers in the team reviewed the code and said.  Yep, it's better to leave it alone..

 

LOL!

THat was a very nice collection!

 

I had seen one of those previously in my wfe's cube about 25 years ago but at that time it read;

 

"Real programmer don't document. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand."

This one definately belongs here. Events of the morning aligned such that reading the solution in that thread caused me to spit just a little bit of coffee at my monitor. Smiley Very Happy
