I agree; because I can cobble together code from snippets of just about any
language. What ole QQQQ doesn't understand is that how or what you use to
make something isn't as important as how well it words. In my case, I only
have to understand what the code does and I don't fill my brain with
re-inventing the wheel type stuff when there are code libraries out there
that are FREE for the taking.
Shoot even speed of execution now days isn't near as important as it
once was what with multiple Ghz CPU's and the likes. I dare say that a
million line basic code will run faster on today's machines then what a
thousand line ASM did on an old 286Hhz machine back in the day

Q. What is the greater problem in the world today,
ignorance or apathy?

A. I don't know and I couldn't care less!
