The joke really only works if you use his first name! The complete joke is that "by value" means pronouncing first and last name to sound like "Nickles Worth".

- alanbernstein 3y ago"worth" alone still means "value" though
- LoveMortuus 3y agoTrue, but I believe the person above you is referring to the fact that the name sounds like nickels (coins) which are generally worth cents. :P
- coldtea 3y agoI always (and still) undestood it to just need the surname.
- ggambetta 3y agoThe way I understand it, it doesn't -- by name (aka by reference) vs by value, as in function arguments.
- ak_111 3y agoWay better interpretation that i missed!
