  • c programmer's disease — (programming)   The tendency of the undisciplined C programmer to set arbitrary but supposedly generous static limits on table sizes (defined, if you're lucky, by constants in header files) rather than taking the trouble to do proper dynamic storage allocation.

In severe cases of the disease, the programmer cannot comprehend why each fix of this kind seems only to further disgruntle the user.
