#90976 - the value of verification Responding to: ???'s previous message |
Erik, I think, you work in C long enough to stop thinking in the low level way (no offence).
Nah, In addition to C I write assembler most weeks> Its funny how your own statements come back, I said: "A suggestion: after having built the table, use one of the coded routines to verify your table." So, yes, I goofed, but I would have caught it by my practice before anything was released. I take this opportunity, not to excuse my error, but to emphasize the value of using however slow, but functioning, coded routines to verify fast tables before releasing. A table is probably the easiest place to make a bug that will not be discovered by testing since no testing will get to all spots in the table. Erik |
