Greenberg) Organization: Time, Inc. - New York Lines: 21 Summary: Dan tells a nice story about not understanding "i++" and the horrendous implications thereof. Funny. I looked at a COBOL program the other day and couldn't figure out what it did. I guess one could say that either I didn't understand the language or that the damned language is full of idioms. Since I don't know COBOL, I guess I should say it was full of idioms, according to Dan. I don't think so.. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Ross M.
