That's pretty much it for me. I'm not going to spend time and effort
trying to help when he doesn't listen.

A real tragedy for Bill, I'm sure. I wouldn't trust the Loser's advice
on how to brush my teeth.

Good line!
Definitely a keeper.

Thanks!

And The Loser proves the sniggers are well-deserved by following up with
the following piece of dazzlingly insightful advice:

The first thing told you to do was the write down what this function
is supposed to do. That gives you guidance in designing the algorithm.

And to think he dispenses this "advice" at no charge! Amazing.

Crikey, the insight he has offered into how to design a system has
positively quadrupled my output. I could almost hear the angels singing.

It took a while to understand his sage words, but I got there in the
end.

And all for free!

"Write down what the function is to do".

Amazing "indeed".
