in thread Intended use and unintended use. An insight into design.

Someone once said to me. "I usually don't regret anything, because when I did it I thought it was the best thing to do.". It think it applies to Cobol.

The thing is with my meditation. COBOL has a purpose. Perl has a purpose. PHP has a purpose. Some of the features of the languages are thought of in advance. A sense of structure.

And the only thing that I said with my meditation. "Think of the purpose why your language exists. For it has a purpose. When you realize the purpose. Plan with it."!
