10/21 - Silly Saturday!

yeah. they had the same exclusion qual of "thank you" so I wasn't sure

 

thats just irritating

 

Sigh.. I got a 2 on the Qual.
Oh well.

 

You're misunderstanding what I mean by a "code smell".

I'm not implying that you just keep the code the same, and simply remove the comments.

Instead, over-commenting is just a hint that your code should bear more of the burden of explaining itself. I demonstrated this above, with the example of a cryptic two-letter variable name, followed by a long-winded explanation of what that variable did. That explanation probably should've been a part of the variable name.

If you still don't understand, this article might help.

Quote from the article:

 

I didn't even notice that. I think it's fine though.

Oof. Tough break.

So this happened while cursing the PFA servers...

 

I like that he included a SS#

 

Poor Dwight D. Coder.

Hope he has credit monitoring services.

His mother also happens to have no maiden name.

I'm not exactly in agreement with @Totally Not , on the amount commenting in code, but I learned to program in the days where you wanted to keep your code as tight as possible because 1. it was DOS and wasn't fully cut & paste mouse friendly, and 2. most personal computers only had a 30-50 MB hard drive in them at the time (~1992) So you wanted to keep your process and variable names short, and you wanted your code to fit uncompiled on a 1.44 MB floppy.

(Don't laugh) my last actual class in programming code was literally Turbo Pascal 3.

But I am, self-admittedly, very rusty programming because I never picked it up professionally, hell I barely touched it as an amateur. So I can't really write too much code by scratch. But I can read & tweak the hell out of it.
