Ha! I had a programmer give me code for testing that he never even bothered to run after compiling. When I asked why. he said: "I don't have to run it, I know how it works. I wrote it." I said: "Because you wrote it. you only THINK you know how it works. In fact, it doesn't even run. It crashes immediately on startup." Given that attitude, what would you guess the answer to your question is?
