Look up my other responses - I decided to call you names _later_ . Other people also pointed that out to you. I'm sure you would thick twice before asking your 'gotcha' again (the question is fine in general but not as a gotcha).

You lost your composure and decided to start calling names after this. I haven't asked it since the late 90s, early 2000s. It was a for a Delphi position. It's a bonehead easy question any Delphi developer who got to chapter 2 of any Delphi book would have understood. It's still an applicable question for a SQL developer and it's just as easy. I even showed you sample code. I don't see why you aren't getting it.
I'm not getting it, I also see that 2 other people are also not getting it.
>I haven't asked it since the late 90s, early 2000s.
You overall gave the impression that you are currently asking it.
And a personal rhetorical question - aren't you too old to even state this 'gotcha' business _today_ about what you did in the past? What made you state it? If I gave you the benefit of doubt - that was slip, where you omitted the past tense.
(If I did that in the 90's I'd be a embarrassed to even mention it today.)
>I'm not getting it, I also see that 2 other people are also not getting it.
Yes, but you're the only one who threw a tantrum. Enjoy your career.
