Yes, as I have full control. I can make some mistakes but then I can debug and fix them.
Of course I mean scripts, applications made for myself. Professional coding in a huge company will depend on third party libraries/classes/modules although GOOD companies with strong background make their own libraries.

• 1 example: see gaming industry; they don't buy graphic engines they create them from scratch
• 2 example: we use reporting framework in our company and we were in trouble last year as the magnificent engine doesn't support 64 bit environment (and yes we paid for it lot of money)
  To sum up:
  • my own software is better if I am the author (I can write a module too),
  • even in professional world of developing it is better to create own libraries if the company can afford it

    Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>

    • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
    • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

      <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

    • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
    • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
