Can you quickly spot the error in this code?
if (GetRandomNumber(1, 20) > 19); // upped this from 17)
{
redirout = OtherURL;
}
You’ll likely think it’s something with a boundary state in the GetRandomNumber method, and sure that’s a good guess, but the actual mistake/error is visible right here, in this code.
If you can’t find it, here’s a hint- we noticed that redirout was being assigned OtherURL a lot.. way more than 1 in 20 times… in fact.. Every time!
The crappy part is it compiled but once your see it, it feels like maybe it shouldn’t compile. I also feel like I was warned about this back 20 years ago.. learning Turbo C. ;p
This actually hurt my business today. No fun, but glad to finally figure it out and get it repaired.
