    Considering that Microsoft was a completely different beast in that time, I'm not surprised it does not seem that silly. M$ (appropriate name for that time) of the day was doing it…

    I had a debate at work about whether guards are considered spaghetti code. The same person also thought that you should never use GOTO's. He learned these rules in his comp-sci cla…
