|
||
completion of a program or other computer-related project. For example,
|
||
the rush you get when you finally run the code you've been hacking for the
|
||
past week and it works first time. (The quality of the experience is
|
||
directly proportional to the complexity of the code and inversely
|
||
proportional to the amount of debugging it took to get the code working.)
