> Precision when describing (programming does not allow ambiguity)
Really? Should we count how many bugs happen due to type conversion, precision errors, off by one etc?
- elwell 6y agoYou only reinforcing the point that programming does not allow ambiguity; thus: bugs.
- dogma1138 6y agoNo engineering discipline allows for “ambiguity” at least how you use it here, try building a train or a spacecraft with that level of ambiguity at that point the bugs tend to make things go boom.
- kuu 6y agoWell, I try my best to avoid bugs and be as precise as I can. But hey, I'm only human ;)
