This is a question Ignorance

I once was in a programming class where the task was "build a calculator". A student did one with buttons 1, 2, 3 all the way up to about 25 and then ran out of space on the screen. We've asked this before but liked it so much we're asking again: What's the best example of ignorance you've encountered?

I work in IT, and one time someone using a computer made a very basic error!

10 print "hello ";
20 goto 9

Do go on

What would you have done?

Nothing, I was just pissing about.
Probably would have put cocks instead of hello though.

This is what I'd have done.
10 for f = 1 to 3
20 print "Hello ";
30 next f
40 print "what's all this then?"
