I however think that pulling yet another all nighter is also extreme. I guess the logical conclusion would be to code with a laptop whilst skydiving from a plane……a bit like extreme ironing

Once this coursework is handed in, my house mate Darren will have been  awake, coding, for 51 hours including doing a  part time job. 51 hours!!!!! Thats got to be the new definition of XP!

The upside is that in that time, I managed to implement SMTP in a Java using sockets. nice.

A word of warning: eating chicken korma during a code marathon is likely to knock you out for two hours……
