For all of you that are working as programmers (not doing it in your spare time).
1. How many lines of code do you produce a day for your company?
2. How much time do you spend fixing bugs in that code?
I would say 1/2 my time is spent planning the application.
I probably produce on the average 200 - 300 lines a day....i did have a day last week where I wrote almost 1000 lines.
My coding time takes into consideration debugging as well.
I do like 2-3 lines a day, but I don't work for a company, and spend very little time on debugging, as I just leave that for the next day. :D
When I'm initially writing an app I could be banging out hundreds of lines a day for about a week.
But then towards the end of the development cycle, I could spend a few hours on just 5 or 10 lines of code trying to debug something...
1) 100 per day
2) the whole of the next day :D

Depends on what type of program you are doing... Some things can be repetitiveQuote:

1) Depends, sometimes 2-3; unless my dealer has come through, then I might do 4... oh wait, that says code, I thought it said coke! ;)
In that case....no, wait, it's still only 2-3....
too much time is spend in documentation these days.
2) The rest of the day after writting those 2-3 lines.
Yeah, depends at what stage of the project and the complexity of t, they'll be days where I can't move forward & they'll be days where I'm 'banging it out' as it were - probably anywhere from about 25 at the end of an app to 700 ish when I know what I'm doing & am cracking on, on average I guess you could probably say around 200-300 mark.
Debugging, again depends on the size of the program but I guess for every 100 lines, probably 5-10 I'll need to sort on average, mainly stupid typos!
The sign of someone who doesn't use option explicit ;)Quote:

[sarcasm] Option explicit is for cheaters and people looking for the easy way out [/sarcasm] :D
Personally I program in notepad and compile the application by hand using paper&pen.Quote:

You obviously take the easy way out and let VB compile it for you :rolleyes:
;)
Actually I type all my code in binary. My brain can only compute 1's and 0's.
thats a waste of keys and intellect ;)Quote:

I didn't know squirrels knew how to compile code by hand from Notepad into VB.
There is much for you to learn yet young jedi.Quote:
