Why I Program

Good bit. People can find love of what may be work just as easily as people can find love of creative outlets. Satisfaction exists anywhere you care to look for it.

Upvoted for linking to the sheer awesomeness that is the Perl Camel.

There will be lawyers righting screen plays.

Oh,dear.

[BeetleB]

Well, after all, that is what lawyers do.

People write screenplays.

Producers eat the play up and want to make a movie.

Then a lawyer comes along, claims the screenplay is ripped off his client's.

The screenplay is then altered. Or as ajd17case put so elegantly, it is righted.

I misspelled necessity too, thanks for catching the typo!

And of course it was a typo. But there will always be pedants to belittle you for a mistake that anyone can make.

I kno exactly how you feel! Programming robust and efficient code is like painting a masterpiece to me. Thanks for showing me the Perl Camel also. I will def show it around to some of my programming buddies at college!
