A Stuttgart-based PureBasic coder
Got his UND all mixed up with his ODER
To get the bug beat
He stayed right in his seat
'Til he gave off an unpleasant odor

Let's see...

A PureBasic coder from Barrie
He didn't successfully marry
Since he spent all his time
With the coding, that slime
She sent him off on a ferry

A coder, with Linux and PureBasic,
had an IMA, but was unable to trace it.
There he was, starring at the screen,
the strangest IMA, he had ever seen.

He hit the keyboard, shouted at his box.
But he never thought, that windows rocks.
Because there's .configure && make && make install
These are magic spells, the strongest of all!

But the IMA still there, not leaving the source.
The coder's getting crazy, he misstyped the *pointer,
of course!
cheers,

...but this is no limerick....

this one doesn't make sense, but rime and rhythm fits:

Code: Select all

OpenWindow():CreateNetworkServer()
CreateFile():If name = "Herbert"
WriteDouble(Percent)
CloseWindow():Beep_():End
Else:CloseFile():EndIf:CloseNetworkServer()
"=" is spoken "equals", for the not native english speakers...

rythm:

Code: Select all

--X--X--X-
--X-X--X-
-X--X
-X--X
--X--X--X-
oh... and have a nice day.

Kaeru Gaman, Server() doesn't rhyme with Server().

it legal to end the last line with the same word as the first or second.
In his time limericks accompanied an illustration on the same subject, and the final line of the limerick was a kind of conclusion, which usually was a variant of the first, ending in the same word.

third sentence in the paragraph about Edward Lear.
