explain more pls.
'Placing pressure on a workaround may result in later failures in the system. For example, in computer programming workarounds are often used to address a problem in a library, such as an incorrect return value. When the library is changed, the workaround may break the overall program functionality, since it may expect the older, wrong behaviour from the library. ' anyone can help me explain the what the 'pressure' means .

Re: explain more pls.
Typical GEEK SPEAK. In this instance the word pressure doesn't mean pressing on something. It means making something work harder than it is designed to do. Example: If you ask your PC to do too many tasks at once it runs out of resources, Ergo you have applied too much pressure.peakforever wrote:'Placing pressure on a workaround may result in later failures in the system.
