    Very good article.

    I just think RBAR would catch on more, if it were pronounced AR-BAR. (Sorry 😉 )

    Maybe "our Bar" would work even better 😀

    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.
