I wrote some simple code today: a batch job that counts the number of items in a queue, then emails the count to a couple of people. My first version sent a message like this:
There are 3 item(s) in the queue.
Then I smacked myself and dove back into the code. Now the message looks like:
There are 3 items in the queue.
or:
There is 1 item in the queue.
Maybe ten minutes to code and test, and I feel better. The item(s)
dodge is lazy, and looks so cheesy.
