Just argument parsing makes my eyes bleed...

https://github.com/mrc-ide/covid-sim/blob/master/src/CovidSi...

That stuff is priceless:

else if (argv[i][1] == 'C' && argv[i][2] == 'L' && argv[i][3] == 'P' && argv[i][4] == '1' && argv[i][5] == ':')

I guess string comparisons are complicated. I also fail to see why they used ':' as the separator and why they didn't use a proper library to parse argv...
