Easter egg (software)
This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Ed Poor (talk | contribs) at 21:35, March 11, 2008. It may differ significantly from current revision.
An easter egg is a hidden bit of software which (like a real Easter egg) can be discovered, generally by entering an undocumented command. Computer games and DVD movies sometimes have easter eggs.
Computer programmers may add an easter egg with or without the connivance of their employers.
