    Developers think row-based. They cannot work with set-based algorithms. Everyone who tells you otherwise hasn't worked together with developers.

    Really? That's a pretty broad brush you're using there. I don't claim to be an expert by any means, but as a SQL Server developer I think I know "set-based algorithms". But then, I guess I'm just fooling everyone...I am a developer after all.

    🙂

    Would SQL query and update statements (without looping and other RBAR constructs) really even be qualified to be called "algorithms" of any sort?
