I have a very personal reason why I favour code with little or no comments: - the comments seldom explain something that is relevant, (still!) correct and not immediately obvious - comments often take up lines and my ability to understand code depends heavily on the amount of code I can see on my monitor without scrolling. For the same reason I prefer the compact coding style: if( ... ) { ... } else { ... } Wouter -- http://www.piclist.com hint: PICList Posts must start with ONE topic: [PIC]:,[SX]:,[AVR]: ->uP ONLY!
