PCH magic numbers

[Phil Edwards]

How are the 3 characters at the end of the magic string to be interpreted?
3-digit decimal number, 2-digit hex with a leading zero, ...?  Do the digits
have categories like SMTP response codes, or do they just go from 000 to 999?

Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are,
by definition, not smart enough to debug it.
