They (pun intended)'d be in trouble these days:
The program must meet users’ rea-
sonable expectations. For example,
in one program it is necessary to de-
termine the user’s sex. For consisten-

accepts F, f, M, and m in addition to 1
and 2. S
Yes, Sex <>Gender. But what is this program doing? Giving prostate/breast
cancer advise?
