Either this is a trick question, or I misinterpreted the question.

I however answered the poll as if the question was,
how many lines of bug free code consecutively (sp?) do I on average code during 1 hour of work.
Which is between 10 and 50 lines and I mess up a line or two, then another 10-50 lines before next bug.

If however it asks how many lines of bug free code total in one hour of coding, then I got no clue really.

I have written full programs in a hour before, which had no bugged code.
And I have also managed to write a single and bugged line of code only, in a full hour. A very ambigious question in this case.

If this is a trick question, then I'm not really sure what it's hinting at.
Typing speed, typing speed of bugs, or what?

i based my number upon some code that i wrote in the past, some of them over 6000..10000 lines long, and compared that with the time needed to wrote and debug them, so yes, i interpreted as 'bugfree code' not bugfree lines...

Am I too old for this forum?!? :lol:

Lines of bugfree code in an hour, was a "common" measurement to explain quality, complexity, speed or difficulty of, for example a project, for 10 - 20 years ago.

It was said that 6 - 10 bugfree lines of code per hour (or was it DAY?!?! :lol: ) was average for a good programmer.

I've just coded a completely cross platform flexographic utility for PC and Mac which automatically draws CAD keylines. It contains 2000+ lines of (bug free) code and took me about 18 hours. 111 lines per hour if i'm not mistaken. Try that in C++! :lol: i love PB! :D

I can get more than 400 lines of code in an hour without bugs, copy paste or VD. It's the design which takes many lines of code. I also use a lot of API.. and nearly all my sources are uncommented.

Ok let me try :

89 lines of bug free code in 0.0016 seconds

89/0.0016=x/3600

x = 200 250 000 lines of bug free code per hour

A small code snippet ...

There is no such thing like "BUG FREE Code" :cry: :cry:

Yes, you are correct every code IS a BUG. But a BAD BUG is code which for example freezes the OS even if it's not attempted to do that.

No ! As I said before. I have programmed a small tool capable to write some code for me. It's extremelly fast and bug free code.

WRONG! As I said above every code is a BUG-. :D
