coding jokes

ever realized the unique types of jokes you can make just using segments of code?

today in class we were asked to buddy up with a classmate and provide a coded example of loop invarients. Me and my classmate submitted this as our example:

while (living)
{
	angst++;
	ddf_self_rightousness=angst*2;
	itchiness = angst - 1;

	if (itchiness > 500)
	{
		cout<<"Too many bug bites!"<<endl;
		living = false;
	}
}

// Loop Invarient:  Itchiness is always less than angst.

later on, we were told to buddy up for another in class assignment. This time the teacher pointed to the two of us as and said "I want you two to work seperately"

void main()
{
  while(!CRASHED)
  {
    display_copyright_message();

Re: coding jokes

Of course. If I had time, I might point out that there is a bit more to it, and it' better hidden than that, but that's basically it.

Re: coding jokes

here's one.

while (tvSize < desiredSize)
{
   tvSize += 13;
   desiredSize = 2*tvSize;
}

Re: coding jokes

These are fun, it takes a certain breed of humor to appreciate them, and I do.

Thus far the tvSize < desiredSize is the best.
