in thread Why? (each...)

Except that based on previous posts he should already know and understand the answer. So, when the correct answer doesn't click, then what? If someone has an irrational mental block, then what? IMO, better to get past that mental block and then return to the original problem later on. Otherwise there's a good chance you are tilting at windmills.

    There's no reason to believe it didn't.

    IMO, better to get past that mental block and then return to the original problem later on.

    There's no way it's better to introduce a bug into every 10 hash initialisations.

    Anyway, this is a false dichotomy. Getting past the mental block doesn't not need to involve providing false information about parens.
