    But you will sorry. Reading standards is like reading the law; it took me two years on ANSI X3H2 to get comfortable with the language. I would start with some of my stairway stuff on the basics:

    And yet you continue to bash people about learning a standard that you've just said they'd be sorry for reading. Stop pushing that garbage. Teach them the right way to do it instead. If you believe that your "stairway" article is more effective, then start posting that instead of bothering people with useless rhetoric about a standard that even took you a long time to understand.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
