Reading the title of the post immediately below this, I began to wonder.
So here's what I was wondering, what is the correct syntax?
CPeon ?
C-Pee on ?
Or what?

Had I prior knowledge that anyone would take this thread in this direction I'd have down-voted myself.

I was more annoyed by the failure to use string.Empty in his sig.
|
|
|
|
|
Or should that have been a String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace()?
|
|
|
|
|
Then you're tying it to a specific version of the framework 
|
|
|
|
|
.NET 4+ should be fine for a recent signature 
Otherwise it should be something like:
if (sig != null && sig.Trim() != String.Empty)
That's .NET 2+
Currently the signature could print:
This is my signature:
And replacing "" with String.Empty isn't going to fix that 
|
|
|
|

String.Empty and "" are the same, Microsoft says so[^]
And personally, I prefer to see "" - it's easier to read at a glance IMO.

Empty is the proper convention though, not only for built-in types but it's a convention you're supposed to use for your own types. How do you reference a non-defined Guid? Guid.Empty? Or..... 
As well as convention, string.Empty is static, whereas when you use "" you create a new instance of string (compiler optimisation aside), and we all know that memory alloc and dealloc is a major performance killer.

Not really. I expected the scary events there, but I was not prepared for the total lack of positive events.

Certainly was! Never try and drink coffee without first having a coffee to wake you up!

After careful consideration (and long-term addiction) I find that the most effective way to use coffee to wake up with is to spill it on ones lap.
