Here's another quickie: Dead simple one!

<?php

function x($x)
{
  switch ($x)
  {
    case 1: return 'bitten';
    case 2: return 'shy';
  }
}

Surely this should be...

function x()
{
     static $count = 0;
     $count++;
     switch ($count)
     {
         case 1: return 'bitten';
         case 2: return 'shy';
     }
     return '';
}

Probably a more accurate solution would be :-

function x()
     {
     static $count = 0;
     $count++;
     switch ($count % 3)
         {
         case 0:
         case 2: return 'shy';

         case 1: return 'bitten';
         }
     }			// x

And it's commented :-P

Wow, what a comment. Mine has that comment too, it's just not noise, it's tabs.

Where in "Once bitten twice shy" does it say "and if you continue it repeats" ??
