> It's always full of holes and difficultly written but easily confused language that you can interpret in many ways (and that happens exactly when in court by the opposing lawyers). This sounds exactly like code. It's one place bugs come from - the human who wrote it interpreted the code differently from the human who wrote the language they used. See JS's implicit global vars for a classic example. And before someone says, "But that's human error; programs have only one valid interpretation," let me remind you of undefined behavior. It exists and is used in defining the C language (yes, it's one reason people don't like C, but since C is the substrate for a whole lot of other languages, it's hard to avoid at the moment).
