Hi Everyone,
It's Friday, so I thought I'd share the fun.
I had to work with this vintage 2003 RPG program with the following
code:
C $AMT1 IFNE 0
C ADD $AMT1 $AMT
C ENDIF
C $AMT2 IFNE 0
C ADD $AMT2 $AMT
C ENDIF
I just wonder what was going through the programmer's mind: performance
improvement? i.e. an IF is so much faster than an ADD?
