This website here has stories that deal with how tidy programmers who are syntax-strict would turn the flip around, there is an amount of innovation in there. Debugging can be a tedious process from what I envision especially when we have a programming team involved and the overall coding style is somewhat distorted from a universal consensus.

It has some hilarious stories that I really wanted to share with us all in here, and of course my purpose is to get an insight into how the minds of Perl programmers work under time constraints and stress and with different debugging scenarios and maybe the types of fixes they resort to when nothing seems to be working.

here is the link everyone, enjoy it, Gamasutra (just for fun nothing else).

P.S with stress I did not mean coding while you have one of your kids on your lap and the two others kicking each other's butts and probably a CAT machine is munching the road outside your window and something's burning in the oven!
