Yes, and a very good example that shows that Tony used the word incorrectly, which was my point. A requirement is not what you want to do, which your example clearly shows.

Eric Stevens
It is if I am person A.

Sandman
In your example, there were no requirements posed for person A, he's the one who added it, not the one subject to it.

Eric Stevens
Person A will have to use a password to log in, just like everyone else.

Sandman
Not in your example, but even so, it's still the same.

Desire - Person A want added security Requirement - Enable measure of identification

Desire - Person A want to use the computer Requirement - Submit password

"A requirement is what you want to do" - Andreas Skitsnack

If that were true - the above would read:

Desire - Person A want to submit a password

Eric Stevens
No it wouldn't. It would read 'Person A needs to submit a password'.

Sandman
EXACTLY! He *needs* to submit a password, that need is not born from desire, it is born out of a requirement.

I love it when you argue with me just because Andreas is arguing with me and then it turns out you actually agree with me, since you can't really twist the world to fit Andreas' words.
