Hi John,

>1 quick point... it looks like you have some HTML tags in the text of your message.

Possible, I'm still not used to that interface.

>I don't think this is a good test. Continually invoking assertion tests in a loop is not something that would normally be done IMO. Rather, I would see something like this as being more in the norm:

The test should only verify that ASSERT slows down execution and by which degree. Of course you won't use 100000 ASSERTs in a loop in practice, that's why I talked about a minor slowdown. Your test would additionally meassure the time for the rest od the procedure as well, and of course you get less overall slowdown factor here.

>What the heck does that mean? Are you going to be saying that in another year??? :) I think the overall content up on CIS is still better. The dialog you and I are having here is typical of CIS and what makes CIS good. UT however is quickly catching up.

Let's say later. *s* There will be a time were I'd probably more active here, but currently I mainly use CompuServe.
