The praise should not only be for CERN, though. Many institutions and projects around the world have contributed to this success. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been possible. Look at all the FP6 and FP7 projects for example.scroogiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04742347403285005875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8703760419767782919.post-70385619983402205302012-12-15T01:37:24.309+01:002012-12-15T01:37:24.309+01:00I miss a statement about the ROOT framework. IMHO ...I miss a statement about the ROOT framework. IMHO it is one of the worst software code which ever came out of CERN. It influenced generations of physics students to write bad "C++" code and is generally just poor software.<br /><br />I have decided for myself that I will never touch anything from CERN anymore, as long as they don't push an official statement out, that their ROOT is the worst software ever. mablhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10127165028664069776noreply@blogger.com
