                      F**ked up beyond all recovery. IE, FUBAR.

                        1. Isn't it : FUBAR ?
                        and
                        2. Wouldn't that be 'recongnition' ?
                        Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

                          Ah, the everpresent foobar/fubar question.

                          The Jargon File says:

                          It has been plausibly suggested that "foobar" spread among early computer engineers partly because of FUBAR and partly because "foo bar" parses in electronics techspeak as an inverted foo signal; if a digital signal is coded so that a positive voltage or high current condition represents a "1", then a horizontal bar is commonly placed over the signal label.

                          I.e. the generic variable "foobar" or "foo bar" is probably a derivative of "fubar", but they do not mean the same thing. "foo" and "bar" (or "baz" or "bat") are so-called metasyntactic variables, words that don't mean a thing by themselves but are used when a nonsensical variable is needed, for example "for [foo] to happen, [bar] must take place first". Or, another example:

                          chomp($foo=`which echo`);
                          system "$foo Hello World > bar";


                          The meaning lord of the mark used in

                          is therefore not exactly precise, but I'm not going to call it incorrect.

                          What comes to "recognition vs. recovery", it's the same with "remember vs. recall" in IIRC - it doesn't matter.

                            FUBAR is an acronym that originated in the military to stand for the words "f***ed up beyond all repair." This is often softened to "fouled up beyond all repair" in reference to hardware. The programming and documentation equivalent is "fouled up beyond all recognition." Sometimes the last word is "recovery" or "reconciliation" or "reason."
