The Usefulness of Commented Code
time to read 2 min | 226 words
In general, my approach to commented code is fairly simple, continious application of the delete key until it no longer exists. I have a source control, thank you very much, and except for short periods when debugging, I absolutely abhor it.
One case where I do leave the code commented is when its absence is something that a later programmer (such as myself) will try to add, with usually unpleasant results. Here is a simple example:
/* Explicitly not checking this, since it is not part of the template
* Assert.AreEqual("3", GetText("AdditionalNumber"));*/
