I know it is improper to not comment enough- the programmers i work with have that to a science.
I know it is improper to put garbage comments in code.
Is it a bad thing to comment in an almost 1:1 ration. Meaning comment each sub, variable etc.
I guess the real question/meditation is at what level do you comment for?
Do you comment for someone:
at your skill level?
above your skill level?
a junior programmer?
or for that #@$@$!#@*#! new jr sysadmin that doesn't know perl. And will gate keep the code from the servers?
Btw I am learning perl because i am that #@$@$!#@*#! jr sysadmin that has to put stuff on the servers.
