Re: Optimization of a piece of code(Is there a better way than this?)

Could you explain how these statements

  $Max_Questions = $Total_Questions;
  &_set_Max_Questions($self,$Max_Questions);
[download]

differ? The second looks odd. I would expect it to read $self->_set_Max_Questions($Total_Questions); unless you're depending later on have $Max_Questions defined. Seeing it written as is, I'm left with the suspicion that there's some odd stuff going on elsewhere.

The _set_Max_Questions function sets a parameter within the object that contains the number of questions that will be asked in the test. The $Total_Questions variable is the total number of questions that are in the question file that was passed when creating the actual object.
