Only once.

And careful programmers test everything with unlikely data too.
I remember code I wrote being passed to a selection of 6th form 'holiday 
job' nerds to try and break it.
And they did.

But my main point is that code designed to 'protect' crap programmers 
introduces its own set of vulnerabilities at a different level.

Everyone in major engineering knows that no one ever get  it right all 
the time and that is why instead of trying, they implement quality 
procedures.
Test it as far as possible.
If  it's wrong:

- fix it
- document the fix
- document why it went wrong
- document ways to avoid getting it wrong in future.
- implement standards to stop it happening again.

Go back and test it all again,.

That's the heart of ISO 9000

In software terms that means don't try to fix the language*, fix the 
procedures under which the language is used, and tested...

I love those air accident reports that say instead of 'the pilot was 
crap '  that
'the procedures and standards for pilot selection, training and 
certification  failed and need to be modified'.
In other words the system was at fault for  failing to adequately 
train, hire  or even certify such a crap pilot in the first place.

The system acknowledges that there are people who want to be pilots, who 
aren't fit to be.

If only we could do the same with coders...

*unless there are important undefined behaviours in it

It’s easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.
