I have to pull a policy statement out of my assistant on this one...

Response to Posting swear word variables in code is not amusing

OK, I made the message title a bit of a play on words just to demonstrate that the posting policy here isn't overly prudish but please do me a favor, moi, and repost your program with appropriate variable names. If you don't, then I will remove it in a few days. I won't edit it myself, because it's your job and your code. Also, as Clippy pointed out, it cannot run with asterisks as posted.

I can only assume you coded it that way and forgot to change it before you posted. I have to admit, on some particularly frustrating programs, I to have coded such variable names just to blow off steam. I then change them to appropriate names after I get the bugs worked out.

Thanks,

Pete
