crock2 an old broken-down horse or ewe crock[American scatologism "crock of shit"] 1. An awkward featureor programming technique that ought to be made cleaner. Forexample, using small integers to represent error codes withoutthe program interpreting them to the user (as in, for example,Unix "make(1)", which returns code 139 for a process that diesdue to segfault).
2. A technique that works acceptably, but which is quite proneto failure if disturbed in the least. For example, atoo-clever programmer might write an assembler which mappedinstruction mnemonics to numeric opcodesalgorithmically, a trick which depends far too intimately onthe particular bit patterns of the opcodes. (For anotherexample of programming with a dependence on actual opcodevalues, see The Story of Mel.) Many crocks have a tightlywoven, almost completely unmodifiable structure. See kluge,brittle. The adjectives "crockish" and "crocky", and thenouns "crockishness" and "crockitude", are also used.crock
