Pasting the source would be a better idea than attaching exes.

LSd016: Can't do that. Students might steal it because they reuse assignments at school. :o

Works fine, although you may not want to allow negative numbers in the entry fields.

I have ran many games from the depot, but I was really afraid of running this exe. ;) Anyway, nice job. :)

btw. Your encryption algorithm beats RSA. ;)

If you try to print but don't have any installed printer, it crashes :P

no, that means the employee makes more bugs than he solves ;)

Thanks everyone!

It's nothing that would be useful to anyone. The assignment was about a company that wanted to reward the employees who fixed the most bugs. When the employee fixes bugs, he gets a certain amount of points. So we had to come up with a bug points calculator that can do cool stuff. Well, not so cool, but you get it right?

Sounds like a good way to keep track of people who make bugs. 8-)

Isn't that great! Check out the formula. The more bugs you enter, the higher points you get (per bug). :o Incentive to make bugs!

User error! ;D Plus, the more quirks you put in your software, the more you can charge for support. 8-)

Yeah, but in any case don't do more than 8193, if you don't want to pay Diana for support ;)

At this rate she'll become rich :o

Just imagine a windows dialog with some text fields, and some useless buttons here and there :D There's also a dialog with an exclamation on top of a yellow triangle that appears quite often, too ;)
