Ahh, but if the code doesn't work, you can read the comments to figure out what it was supposed to do, and then fix it.

'If the comments and code disagree, then they are both probably wrong!' - I think that's from Code Complete by Steve McConnell, I'll check tomorrow. BTW, does anyone here rate Code Complete? I heard great things about it, but by the time I got round to reading it I found most of it was either out-of-date, blindingly obvious, or stuff I'd already been taught or worked out for myself.
