Unless it's the inner loop of a time critical function, this is exactly how code ought to be written. Especially in the professional world. Code maintainability is a far greater concern than efficiency for about 95% of the code in any project. Optimizing more than the 5% of code that needs it is highly suboptimal, both in terms of the immediate use of your time, and the time of others down the road.Schol-R-LEA wrote:...

Acutally, I find that each program has its own muse. Sometimes the real problem is not letting them interrupt each other. OTOH, if one is ignoring you, following another will sometimes make her jealous...
