We got our midterm results back tonight - I got 87/95, for a mark of 92%. The computer the instructor used to mark our exams couldn't add, however - it counted 45/50 on one side of the punch card (yes, punch card) and 41/45 on the other despite having marked 87 of my answers as being correct. Apperently I'm not the only one who had this problem; the instructor took our exams back to correct the marks.

We also got our first assignments back, and I got 100% there. The instructor said that if he'd wanted to be really picky, he'd have taken a couple of marks off. Apparently my comments are too verbose. Oy. Oh, and we got our second assignments tonight. This one's going to take quite a bit more work - I don't know where I'm going to find the time now.

First day of work tomorrow. I should be in bed, I suppose, but I only just finished dinner...

Your comments are too verbose?

Heh. I have never, ever heard that complaint about a programmer's code before. It's almost always "Please, please, please comment, at least a little." *g*

Good luck tomorrow!

I know, it threw me off too, like he was looking for an excuse to deduct marks but couldn't come up with one. :)

And thanks!

Congratulations on you great marks.

Good luck and much success with work. Don't worry, you'll eventually get a more 'normal' sleep pattern.

Congrats on the very nice marks. And very good luck tomorrow (today) at work.

And you should be in bed, silly boy. :D

For the record, there is no such thing as "too verbose comments".

Dumb ass instructor. If anything comments are usually the opposite and you can't understand WTF is going on.

Keep up the long, wordy, descriptive and USEFULL commenting habits!
