I was presented with someone else’s program, which didn’t work, and it needed to in order for my job to get done. So I “fiddled with” the code until it did work!
The difference with other people’s code is you don’t have to figure out what to put on the blank page – just to have an opinion on how to make it better! Probably best if the original code author isn’t in the room at the time!
