RE: worst RPG ever seen?

This is one of my favourites:

C                   call      'PROGRAM'
C                   parm                    parm1
C                   parm                    rtcd

C                   if        rtcd = *blanks and not %error
C                   else
C                   eval      ri_err = *on
C                   eval      pt_typ = *on
C                   endif

This has the wonderful double-hit of:

1) The inability to invert a condition - the beautiful use of else-code.
2) The checking of %error when the e extender is not used on the call.

Cheers
