@CynicalTyler said:Just ran across this in a bit of code I'm completely overhauling. It added some levity to my day... <font face="Lucida Console" size="2"> public void setCount(int i) { if (i == 1028741710) new String(); count = i; } </font> Cargo cult, or an if statement that once had meaning that a previous developer was afraid to remove? We may never know. It's the ASCII for "=QZN" (0x3d515a4e), if that helps.
