In Matthew 24 we can hear Jesus warning us about the present BIG FAKE NEWS:

For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Behold, I have told you before.

The biggest LIE, so widely repeated these days, is that explosions, (i.e. undirected energy events - like mutations) can sometimes add useful code to a computer program (or useful structure to a computer)... this lie should be easily obviously a lie to any real computer programmer.

I haven't checked in for a long time ... We are, for sure, living in the time, long foretold, of Great Deception
... see Matthew 24.

The first thing I heard Trump say, back in 2016, was: I was greedy for myself, but now I'm going to be greedy for the people.

These are clearly the words of a man who has repented ... as we are all are called to do.

Note that true repentance has fruits that can be seen.

For example, has Trump brought back jobs to U.S.A.?

Just to confirm the ease I suggested ...
you might like to see this quickly coded Python example:

# findVolForSphereGivenRadius.py #  # 2016-10-02 #

def takeInFloat( prompt ):
    while True:
        try:
            return float( input( prompt ) )
        except( ValueError ):
            print( "Only decimal numbers are valid input here. Try again." )

if __name__ == "__main__":
    from math import pi
    PROMPT = "Input a radius to find the volume for that sphere: "
    while True:
        radius = takeInFloat( PROMPT )
        print( "The volume of a sphere with radius {:.2e} is: {:.2e}".
               format(radius, 4/3.0*pi*radius**3 ) )

        if input( "More (y/n) ? " ).lower() == "n":
            break

If you will carefully re-read ...

It's pretty hard to say where the problem could be
without seeing the code IN QUESTION.

Dani ...

I think we have a 'malicious stalker' haunting your normally nice and friendly web space ?

... have things ever got so slack around Dani's place ... in the last several weeks ?

So many ... dead threads ... now ... being resuscitated?

I'm also now thinking ... a very good case could be made, for 'being lazy' ... by NOT keeping up with modern trends in C++ coding, and thus NOT using new coding tools to save your employers time and money :)

Unless that is, he/she is getting paid for your hours worked ...

and thus is ok with you 'padding' the hours ...

coding in unnessary things,

that the compilers are now designed to do for you :)))
