I don't consider knowledge of basic grammar and spelling rules, as taught at an elementary school level, to be over-education. Nor the expectation that grown adults operate at an elementary school level or above to be unreasonable. In case you're confused, my comments are in reference to illiteracy and not the occasional typographical error which we all make.

I share your obsession with both code and language in general. Unfortunately, Dwayne Charrington fails to comprehend the difference between a typographical error (i.e., a mistake) and illiteracy (e.g., poor education). I've often wondered how people who take their illiteracy for granted, and see no reason for concise communications, would do in numerical programming. I can hear it now... "so what, I'm a few digits off. Big deal!" I too am from the original PHP days, when there was only PHP/FI and an active mailing list with about 30 of us on it. I too take programming seriously, as an art form. Most instant self-made coderes these days take it as a means to an end, and exhibit little pride in their craftsmanship of same. What a shame that is. But then again, when someone needs a bullet-proof application, that's why there are folks like us out there. Regards, Lew Payne Well said, jackrabbit slim.

I come from a generation of programmers who take pride in their work, this means writing code which is not just efficient, but easy to read. A life of coding in various languages, learning correct syntaxes and coding in accepted styles invariably leads to an obsession with language. This obsession leads one to produce coding algorithms which are as beautiful as they are functional, resulting in a code purity which is as important to the writer as it is to any other coder who may have need to understand the algorithm in a few years time. The obsession extends to any form of communication requiring information exchange through the use of language - this includes email communications and blogging. As someone who is actively involved in the hiring of programming staff, I can assure you that use of correct grammar in job applications is essential. If you cannot express your ideas according to the rules of your native language what hope have you got of expressing your programming solutions succinctly and correctly in a language you learned just a couple of years ago? So I would go further than Adam, Lothar and Normal: it is of paramount importance that the grammar in blog posts which are directed at programmers is error free. Incorrect communication implies at best laziness, at worst ignorance - either way the integrity of the blog is fundamentally undermined. Finally, you do not need degree's [sic] to utilise the English language correctly, a simple pride in your output should suffice. @dwayne

I come onto yet another blog full of people correcting grammar mistakes. Yes bad grammar is unprofessional, but seriously why do people go to these extreme measures to correct people on it? Normal, I would love to see your degree's in literature or any other English degree's you have obtained. Seriously, if grammar concerns you so much to the point of correcting someone who spelt it's 'its', why don't you become a school teacher or something? Why even bother posting in the first place, if you're only going to pretend to know what you are talking about? All of my PHP scripts are already ready for PHP 6 it would appear. So I guess I am all good. - Dwayne Charrington, http://www.dwaynecharrington.com How typical. I come onto yet another blog full of people correcting grammar mistakes.
