Seems obvious this activity cannot be ripped apart the rest of the  =

world/humanity.

It is mostly done like others human stuff are done. However, computer  =

science is still one which is done the nicer. Yes, there are flow, but a=
t  =

least, a bug is to be fixed when discovered and it is mostly done sooner=
  =

or later, even if not always the better way. Just compare that to  =

administrations and civil services, which proudly enforce there own bugs=
  =

more years or two or three century. At least, with computer science, eve=
n  =

with C, you will never see someone to be proud of numerous existing bug =
 =

and maintain and sustain this as much as they can.

Just to say that, yes, human is what it is, but computer science is one =
of  =

the best place where although not all is nice, things goes better than  =

with anything else.

-- =

There is even better than a pragma Assert: a SPARK --# check.
