About Hardcoded Software

To "hardcode" is to write an absolute value (not a variable or another dynamic data) directly in an application's source code. Hardcoding is a bad programming habit. "Hardcoded Software" doesn't really make sense because only parts of a software are hardcoded, not the software itself. Hardcoded Software is a word twist meaning that I put a lot of efforts in my applications. When I say a lot of efforts, I mean a lot.
