Problem is. ''made_virus()'' returns either 0, or 1. Either you never made one, or you did. But once you did, it will always return 1.

Now, I assume that this code is in the main pump of your life-loop. So it will be passed multiple times. Basicly, you are saying that if you made a virus ONCE, you just keep on getting leeter and leeter?

I think made_virus() returns true if he successfully made a virus, and false if the virus is borked. so everytime he successfully made a virus, his leet increments by one.

Viruses were introduced by System Admins in the time of mainframes. It was a way to keep them in business. If their boss fired their asses, they would never get back to suspend the virus. So, either a new sys admin would have to find it or the boss would have to rehire their sys admin to get it fixed.

After main frame time was over, those people kept writing viruses because they probably found it 1337.
