It's what most software developers use to design their software (80-90% of dev time) before coding (10-20% of dev time) to avoid mistakes, hours of debugging, missing features, security problems, and the like. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Modeling_Language http://umlwiki.org/ http://www.parlezuml.com/e-books/umlformanagers/index.htm http://www.uml.org/ (Official site) -- Travis Warlick "Programming in Java is like dealing with your mom -- it's kind, forgiving, and gently chastising. Programming in C++ is like dealing with a disgruntled girlfriend -- it's cold, unforgiving, and doesn't tell you what you've done wrong."
