What is the absolute worst code you've ever seen anybody do.

What language did they do it in and what did they TRY to do.

Here's mine:
A number converter from hex, oct, and bin was awful!
The code was over 25 pages long and there were zillions of if statements for every possible combination of numbers!

C++ was used to make it.

I once watched somone in my C++ class with Hanosh write a program, for craps, I think, in which he tried to pass global variables. It was disgusting.

I've already paid tribute to the beast, there is no longer reason.
