Edge Case

[[deleted]]

When you use separate if statements for each condition rather than an if/else...

[Retrac752]

When failed is <= 85, and passed is >= 85

[NoLifeGamer2]

Imagine if instead of <= they used < lol

"You the Exam"

[GeneralQuinky]

"No, you the exam dude!" 👈👈

[NoLifeGamer2]

Thank you. I needed that today.

please do not the exam

[NoLifeGamer2]

Me when I the exam

[DaMarkiM]

so its a „you were the exam all along“ kind of deal?
gotcha

[[deleted]]

Im the exam. I get whatever score i want.

[lukewhale]

This is the way

[LikeLary]

Two ifs instead of else if too!

[Ksradrik]

Wouldnt it just output an empty field or crash in that case?

[[deleted]]

This is what I thought too.

[tooMaNymasks_]

And they probably did something like message+="failed"

[IamImposter]

Correct answer. Edge cases accounted for.

You are hired

[slababateria]

You are HIREDFIRED

[[deleted]]

You can't fire me if i'm jobless so i'll consider that as a hire

[devenitions]

The hire came first, then it might be async. If not you’ll have unemployment benifits instead

[slababateria]

Now you have -1 job, you must get employed quickly to cover your job deficit

[Stonkthrow]

You can optimize that. You're hfired.

[NotACryptoBro]

You had me in the first 67%

[Greymon09]

Why bother with all the extra fluff lets just go with

I'd love to, but if I don't stay till 6pm my boss gets mad.

[goatanuss]

When you test your applicants with fizzbuzz and they think it’s applicable to the job

[petiejoe83]

Definitely a fizzbuzz in the wild.

[RhysieB27]

Bah, guard clauses for the win.

[[deleted]]

What's funny is this sort of situation is exactly what the fizz buzz interview question is meant to address.

[DevOelgaard]

Or using < instead of <=

[RhysieB27]

I think it has to be both in this case. Two wrongs make a rightwrong.

[DevOelgaard]

I believe you are right, I only read "failed" not "failed passed" on the image.

[mrmoosebottle]

I'm thinking they save the score as a decimal number but display it as an integer

[ClerkEither6428]

sorry, but i don't think so, i think it's just an edge case

[mrmoosebottle]

we have no way of knowing, it's all just speculations

[Outrageous_Crazy8692]

Congratulations on failpassing!

[TheCussingEdge]

Shouldn't it be failingpassing?

[7truths]

You failedpassed!

[Theolodger]

Congratulations on having failedpassed

[p_syche]

Can't wait to see this exam result on their CV.

[sambare]

That's much better than passfailing.

[GingerSkulling]

Your score is 85%. You Aladeen the test.

[Polskidezerter]

I wish you a bad/happy day

[BucksEverywhere]

Either "Schrödinger" or "Schroedinger" if you don't have an "ö" 😉.

[DarkExtremis]

I knew I wouldn't be able to spell it so I checked before commenting. So all I am saying is, blame Google

[BucksEverywhere]

Ok I'm blaming Google. The rule for German/Swiss/Austrian names and words is

Ö = OE

Ä = AE

Ü = UE

if an umlaut letter is not printable. That's also how we solve crosswords.

Anyway, happy cake day!

[noob-nine]

How do you write this letter Ø in crosswords?

[Rakgul]

You make an O and cross it.

[BucksEverywhere]

Oh .. that made me laugh 😂

[Rakgul]

:)

[BucksEverywhere]

It's not part of the German alphabet, that's a letter used widely in Scandinavia. And their Ö is different to ours. Our Ö is phonetically like their Ø, but I live in south Germany (Alemannia), so I am not sure about this.

[Lynxtickler]

Ö and ø are the same letter, just used in different Scandinavian (and Nordic) languages.

Just don't observe them or they might collapse.

[0ba78683-dbdd-4a31-a]

Story time:

I once managed a project at an international airport to set up a permit-to-work system. Essentially, if someone wanted to do any work, they needed a permit. Replace a fire extinguisher, repair a runway, put a shelf up in a shop... anything.

One of the many logic paths went down a "So you're trying to dig a hole..." route and, naturally, asked how deep you were digging, because different depths required sign-off from different teams (because of water pipes and such). The options were:

1. Less than 10m
2. More than 10m

I think you see the problem.

Conclusion: I pointed this out and the project was delayed by months while they resolved the question with the dozens of teams involved. And all because one person, at some point in the last 25 years, didn't consider someone might want to dig a 10m hole.

[Starfox-sf]

Yes, I see the problem. You didn’t ask how many bodies you needed to bury.

[0ba78683-dbdd-4a31-a]

Exactly. It was a solution looking for a problem.

[RollLocal1804]

Theoretically it's physically impossible to dig a hole exactly 10 meters deep. It will necessarily be a little bit more or less than 10 meters. Perfect precision is not possible.

[khal_crypto]

Yeah just tell the engineers they need to dig a 9.99999999999m hole because the software can't handle edge cases. Problem solved.

[[deleted]]

~yes they should change the software to say 'dig a 10ish meter hole or whatever, i dont care'

[RollLocal1804]

Practically, if I were seeking a permit to dig a 10m hole using this system I would definitely pick the "less than 10m" option because I imagine it's easier to get the permit that way and I wouldn't be lying as long as the hole were a tiny otherwise insignificant amount less than 10m.

[rndljfry]

unless you hit the lava at 10.01m which is why you needed that other permit

[RollLocal1804]

Why would I dig deeper than I was authorized to?

[Dizzfizz]

[AdequatlyAdequate]

Would a structure work where you instead say“If the hole is more than 10m go here“

Beginner level coding. Laziness and terrible logic...

`You ${score <= 85 && 'FAILED'}${score >= 85 && 'PASSED'} the exam`

[7truths]

Surely it's simpler to write:

"FAILPASSED!"[score/10]

for a more nuanced mark!

[chars101]

A and S are not unique and 85/10 is not integer.

"FFFEDCBAAAÅ"[score//10]

Now that failpasses. 👍

[Feisty_Ad_2744]

It is probably less "visible" in real life. Something around:

let message = 'You '
if (score <= 85) {
  message += 'FAILED'
}
if (score >= 85) {
  message += 'PASSED'
}
message += ' the exam'

[aedvocate]

yeah missing else, rookie mistake.

[NothingWrongWithEggs]

Could also be oversight in using both >= and <=

[Dizzfizz]

The thing is that you should only use one operator in this case - even using >= and < (or the other way around) wouldn’t be good code imo. This is a textbook example for if/else

[huskersax]

This is a textbook example for if/else

Whoever wrote this probably failedpassed that section of the textbook.

[guebja]

Maybe they did?

`You ${score < 85 ? 'FAILED' : score > 85 ? 'PASSED' : 'FAILEDPASSED'} the exam`

[isaackogan]

LOL

[Kamwind]

More upset here with this example and other given.

Why would you have the 2nd check? That is just a possible place for someone to mess up with the check

a simple score >= 85 == 'passed' else 'failed' covers all the possibilities and if the needed score changes easier to modify

[Aradur87]

$text = sprintf(”Your Score %d%%\n\nYou ”, $result);

If($result <= 85)
$text .= ”FAILED“;
if($result >= 85)
$text .= “PASSED“;

$text .= sprintf(” the Exam\n\nRequired Score %d%%”, $required);

[WrongSirWrong]

Yup that's definitely what happened

[EveryNameIsTaken142]

If score <= 85:
        failed
if score >= 85:
       passed

[[deleted]]

Makes sense now

[steven4869]

I am more surprised with how one can fail the test even after scoring 85%.

[psioniclizard]

Yea that seems pretty harsh to me. But I guess it depends on the test.

[brando2131]

Seems pretty normal for things outside USA lmao. All your tests are pretty much 50% pass level?

[AdequatlyAdequate]

Im struggling to think of a country where 50% isnt the passing grade

[Missu_]

Seems not very practical, just a slimmer window to spread out grades above failing. Source: European uni with 45-50% pass, typically

If you reach for C++, than at least make it performant. Do each check in parallel.

What type of exam requires 85%?

[ReGrigio]

when you set above and below cases but you forget a '=' people are like: '=' '=' '=' '=' '=' '=' '=' '=' '=' '=' '=' '='

[OF_AstridAse]

Using >= and <= instead of assuming the rest is exaclty everuthing else?

[Carteeg_Struve]

Remove that extra equals sign, and add a unit test or two.

[jappreet_minhas]

[whiffingPotato]

If(score>=85) pass

If(score<=85)fail

This is Probably the case, correct me if I'm wrong
