Option Strict : Cory Isakson - Why "Option Strict" ?

Why the name “Option Strict”?

Well, a few reasons.

#1 FUN: After seeing the name of Luke Hutteman's blog I really thought that it was cool to name the blog something more than just the individuals name who is spouting off.

#2 BUSINESS: I am tired of seeing VB coders attempting .NET and continuing to operate in compatibility mode. C# forces better type safety and help protect us from ourselves and legacy habits.

#3 LIFE: Truth is not relative, optional, or determined by popular opinion.

Personally, I prefer OPTION STRICT OFF as it allows me more flexibility when I build and deploy applications in Visual Basic .NET

Not even running C# or .net, but in PERL (yes, PERL - ugh!) we always use strict to keep the boys from running amok! Prefer having guidelines rather than "there's more than one way to do things"

I really have no idea how any of this works, but Im glad that there are people like you guys who do- I can't imagine what life would be like without Counterstrike.
