Well I thought the it is more complicated then it needed to be, obfuscated code doesn't have to be hard to understand does it?

    Merriam-Webster lists it as:
    Main Entry: ob·fus·cate
    Pronunciation: 'äb-f&-"skAt; äb-'f&s-"kAt, &b-
    Function: transitive verb
    Inflected Form(s): -cat·ed; -cat·ing
    Etymology: Late Latin obfuscatus, past participle of obfuscare, from Latin
    ob- in the way + fuscus dark brown -- more at OB-, DUSK
    Date: 1577
    1 a : DARKEN b : to make obscure
    2 : CONFUSE
    - ob·fus·ca·tion /"äb-(")f&s-'kA-sh&n/ noun
    - ob·fus·ca·to·ry /äb-'f&s-k&-"tOr-E, &b-, -"tor-/
    adjective 
    Which basically means it should be hard to understand :)

      Beatnik if you say so,

      but as you being my mentor it is you who should be nailed to a pole!
      besides complexity and dificulty are relative

      Hope to see you soon on irc, my big program is progressing nicely
