- atroyn 10y agoI understand this criticism from experienced C programmers, and yes Zed doesn't always give a strict-standard accurate account. But for a total novice, the approach of broken thing, figure out why it's broken, fix it, is very powerful. After all, this is the bulk of dev work. Additionally, Zed pays special attention to defensive programming, an often forgotten art and good practice.
