I was calling the function - not returning it...so even though the right market value was calculated, it never left that function.

Brilliant VB language definition... A function returns a default value if no return value is specified explicitly...
|
|
|
|
|
It's not just VB which does that

Shouldn't that create a compiler error or at least warning as your function doesn't explicitly return a value?
|
|
|
|

It gives you a warning:
BC42353 Function 'getActivityMarketValue' doesn't return a value on all code paths. Are you missing a 'Return' statement?

At least in C# it tells you when you're supposed to return a value.
I don't suppose this would have been caught by turning on VB's "strict" option?
Of course, the last time I did that to some VB code I inherited, I got thousands of errors.

I think "Option Strict" would pick that up alright.
But I think the same rule applies to coding as parenting - if the child is already 5 years old it is way too late to start getting strict

Just got this today after opening a Razor page:
Predefined type 'System.String' was not defined or imported.
Whaaaa? Predefined...is not...defined?

I got a message box with an OK button, an error icon, and the text and caption "Boink?" when I tried to install an extension about a month ago. VS promptly crashed with a NullReferenceException when I clicked the OK button. It hasn't happened since.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

I get all manner of error messages in VS2015 - none of which are actually errors

Are you crazy testing the actual version of a Software from M$?

Your password should contain at least 6 characters, otherwise it won't be accepted.
However, you CAN type a shorter password, it's just that it'll be rejected.

From the requirements document: "The password entered by the user should be rejected if it does not contain at least six characters."
If I received that requirement from my boss, I would make darn sure that the password is rejected. I don't think I would randomly reject some and not others.
How about "You shouldn't break the speed limit"? Now, if you were being chased by a tyrannosaurus rex, I think the judge would (should?) let you off the hook.

If I receive a requirement document from the boss, I just do what I want. It usually has an "optional requirements" section...
|
|
|
|
|
Well then, what exactly do you do when they are not in the "optional" section?
Please enlighten us! I'll check, but I'm sure I did not mention optional requirements.

No, but if you do, would you pick one up for me as well?
