Leo Tolstoy and static code analysis
- AndreyKarpov 15y agoAbstract. This time we checked Apache HTTP Server with PVS-Studio. As we had expected, we found errors there. The errors are few. We expected this either. Other developers come across this situation too while testing PVS-Studio on their projects. Unfortunately, the first conclusion you would like to draw on seeing just a few errors is that a tool like this is useless to you. I have just invented a good analogy to show why it is not so.
- ansy 15y agoTolstoy is perhaps not the best example because he had little to do with the spelling, grammar, and sentence structure of his English language works. This was all done by the respective translator after the fact. A better author to use would be someone like Nabokov or Hemingway who originally wrote in English.
