Conservatively a Million? That means that over a 40 year career, working
40hrs per week, 52 weeks a year and no vacations you'd be writing about 12
programs per week?

Why? What can I do in the cycle that I can't do without the cycle? How
does the cycle make the code more efficient? How does the cycle make
the code clearer to most folks? What's the advantage of using the
cycle?

And I'm not trolling...I've written (conservatively) a million
programs using the cycle back in the day.
