“The road to wisdom?
Well, it's plain and simple to express:
Err and err and err again
but less and less and less.”
~ Piet Hein In other news, I try to check my answers by deriving them two ways. If they agree, then I at least have a good defense :). If I'm working on something that can only be reached one way (like pulling data from a database), I assert boneheaded things that should be true about code + data structures. Sometimes it's superfluous, sometimes it catches mistakes. If you don't work in a language that provides stack traces on crashes, add logging. You'll get a rudimentary stack trace of what was happening when everything went to hell, as well as have a small radius for where the crash occurs. |
