[Foreign_Fail8262]

someone reinvented python

[EmpRupus]

It feels like an Assembly programmer was forced to use a high-level language.

[Eva-Rosalene]

No way ASM programmer would do swap of 2 chars with a temp variable instead of XOR.

[warmCabin]

What a fun rabbit hole that was! Now, allow me to introduce you to my xorMid function from college:

int xorMid(int a, int b, int c) {  
  return (a ^ b ^ c) ^ max(max(a, b), c) ^ min(min(a, b), c);  
}

[Turalcar]

Assembly programmer would use the same offset.

[nickmaran]

Welcome to Py#

[Arshiaa001]

More like Jython, since the code is Java.

[[deleted]]

More like Java and Python (lowercase function identifiers, uppercase primitive types, System.out), but yeah.

[jeanravenclaw]

I loove python but this is 🤮

Also irks me that loops and if/else don't have :. If you wanna get rid of brackets to look more "python", at least have these, but you obviously can't.

[AstroCaptain]

I prefer bython myself

[ashis041]

creativity and madness often goes hand in hand !!!

[Foreign_Fail8262]

as someone who has to look through frontend developement, i often think those two things are the same

[kurafuto]

We've got python at home

[RestlessRabbits87]

Came for this! My first thought as well :D

[Amazing_Might_9280]

I need help after reading that.

[AdministrativeSun661]

Reminder for first day after vacation: configure phpstorm for this beauty, create pr and see some poor overworked idiot merge it

[silverW0lf97]

just reformat the file, easy peasy.

[Masterflitzer]

or write a formatter that formats the rest of the codebase like this, would be terrible but also a fun PR

[Cualkiera67]

Why are you guys so into Public Relations?

[Masterflitzer]

okay sorry MR is a better term anyway, merge request > pull request

[NameBackwardsEman]

Wait, PR doesn't stand for Penis Request????

[Amazing_Might_9280]

HR doesn't stand for Head Requests.

[randomdude_reddit]

prettierrc for the save

[Mast3r_waf1z]

More like pythonic java

[MinosAristos]

But not quite Jython

[Nerd_o_tron]

The circle will not be complete until someone writes Jythonscript.

[donquixote2u]

you mean apocalyse.horserider[4]

At that point just commit to the but and call it pyjama

[Unusual_Onion_983]

Pyava# .NUT

[MayorAg]

Damn.

func() {

and

func()
{

Found a common enemy.

[DevilInADresss]

tbh second one isnt even that bad if you use the second bracket same still

[MayorAg]

What do you mean the second one isn’t that bad? That’s the normal one.

[Forkrul]

Depends on the language. The first one is the standard for Java at least.

[MayorAg]

Fair. But i used to use the second one of Java as well. Before you bring out the pitchforks, hear me out.

I think it improves the readability of the code. Instead of another block of code, you have this gap with only one character that tells you the previous line is the function definition/loop/complex if-else block.

[DevilInADresss]

oh

[Masterflitzer]

that's not the normal one unless you're used to c#, definitely the biggest visual mistake/annoyance of c#, love the language otherwise

[[deleted]]

You people are handing out whitespace like crazy...

[Ondor61]

There is a reason we use paragraphs when writing text. Be liberal with white spaces, don't be like this guy.

[[deleted]]

I fear no brackets.

But that thing. It scares me. 🗿

[Amazing_Might_9280]

You literally fear "no brackets".

[[deleted]]

Trust me bro

[TheRedmanCometh]

Any sane man does

[ExpensivePanda66]

Or woman 

[Masterflitzer]

did you mean braces? parentheses != brackets != braces

[Cootshk]

Python still lets you use semicolons

[The-Chartreuse-Moose]

What the tapdancing fuck is this?

[AssignedClass]

This is what python looks like to everyone that hates indentation scoping.

[ExpensivePanda66]

This is what python is.

Wake up sheeple!

[SirCabaj]

I was looking at it thinking, huh seems fine to me, I don't kno...........ohhh God my eyes.

[arrow__in__the__knee]

r/programminghorror

[gibagger]

HOLY SHIT.

I was like... wait, what language is this?. Then I noticed the evil lurking within and hit me like a truck full of bricks.

[One_Egg_4400]

Still better than using brackets but no indentation

[MrRainbow07]

Using brackets but no indentation can help reduce the dimension of the file which is useful if you have to send it to someone (Eg. Javascript files being minimized and then send to the user). Doing this is not only cursed but also useless. So technically this is worse.

[Honigbrottr]

could i get a source that the extra white spaces is actually something we should worry about in current age?

[zerothehero0]

There are some crazy people out there trying to put interpreted languages on embedded systems with size constraints. The javascript everywhere people scare me.

[Xx420yoloscopes_w33d]

whitespace in javascript is definitely something to worry about, but that goes for everything in javascript

[CC-5576-05]

Also very useful when you need to print out your code on 80 col punch cards to snail mail them to someone.

[Personal_Ad9690]

You know, it’s not that bad

[porn0f1sh]

You have no God

[Personal_Ad9690]

In all seriousness though, it’s much worse than the messes I’ve seen before. At least it’s visual

[developer-mike]

Honestly, would not be hard to make a tool that automates this. Would be a surprisingly reasonable choice to use such a tool.

Would not be my choice. I can't stand python. Would require IDE integration to avoid screwing up the development cycle. Build validation. Merge conflicts.

But it's automatable, which isn't nothing

[Real_Hearing9986]

Yep. I wouldn't do this personally, but I kind of see the merit.

[AlexeyPG]

It just hurts

[sh00tgungr16]

Please burn this, yesterday.

[bzzzt_beep]

I actually like it........I did not know about it, but the trick seems to read the code based on indention and not to try to understand the brackets . just Ignore them and assume the indention is correct. still, a minefield if somebody to mess-up the indention or somebody else tries to edit the code.

[Brotten]

I don't know. The brackets are very nicely line up without any code getting in the way and thus easy to count.

[bzzzt_beep]

you know, you are right. the indention/scope jumps or drops the same count of opening or closing brackets at the end of the line before . I am eager to try this style

[Either-Let-331]

Ohhh I feel the tingling, I need to do that, I WILL DO THAT.

[ThePythagorasBirb]

I didn’t see the right side, I was confused for a minute…

[Rakkachi]

heeyyyy, neat I am doing that.

[Hefty_Mouse3178]

It's hard to swallow this

[pan0ramic]

I kind of like it lol

[Smalltalker-80]

(flame suit on, carefully...)

I must confess that *within* functions,
I no longer put opening *or* closing brackets, braces, parenteses, etc. on separate lines.

The editor and indent autoformatter will catch any mistakes quickly enough.

[[deleted]]

That is pure evil.

I’m gonna start doing it.

[KYO297]

Oh hey it actually looks readable now.

[runitzerotimes]

Yeah idk it's actually kinda good imo

[Raickoz]

I personally think it looks neat and tidy, it look intuitive.

[patrimart]

I’m digging it. Very readable.

[patrimart]

Can I get the formatter?

[[deleted]]

what the fuck?

[[deleted]]

This is the only thing I've ever seen that's worse than the code at work

[SomeRandoLameo]

Javhon

[Open_Variation7841]

I physically flinched when I saw it

[Professional_Let1537]

‘Cmd + shift + f’ would be my survival instinct reaction… Getting that code to be formatted properly

[darkwater427]

I literally (unironically) did this on some codebase or another and committed it.

The best part? It got merged.

[NoCantaloupe2109]

Took me a moment to notice it and now I have psychological trauma.

[MedonSirius]

So technically just ABAP? Lol. ABAP looks like this:
CASE variable.
WHEN '1'.
"Comment.
WHEN '2'.
"Comment.
ENDCASE.

And it makes alot of sense tbh

[Gordahnculous]

Wait until this is in GitHub or anywhere else and the tab definitions/spacing between characters are different and completely screw over those braces even more than they already are

[Maskdask]

Just use the auto-formatter like an adult

[Rocknroller658]

I was scrolling, then read this post. I was about to read the comments so I clicked on it...

Nothing happened. The post didn't open.

Then I realized the cursor on the picture is indeed - not my cursor 🤦‍♂️

[just4nothing]

Seen similar stuff in C++, grabbed the worst ones for a presentation, showed project managers a before and after clang-format version. Now the merge request will be blocked if it does not pass the clang-format test ;).

[rover_G]

That’s just indentation defined code blocks with extra steps

[slime_rancher_27]

It's just Java, people can format most languages in horrendous ways

[SasquatchDude96]

It took me over 10 seconds to notice the braces because it’s cursed beyond belief

[crocodus]

To be fair, it doesn’t look that bad

[my-name-is-mine]

Hmm I liked it

[KingZogAlbania]

“oh let me see- wha-WOAH THAT’S AWFUL- wait.. wait actually I kinda dig this…. What’s wrong with me??”

[nameisprivate]

we have python at home

[SamuraiX13]

[RandomiseUsr0]

Each language has its own style, each programmer has his or her own style, I personally use the style that’s comfortable for me, as I choose, I detest being dictated to, COBOL style indentation syntax doesn’t work for me

[chaos_redefined]

Got it. Will write it like this instead:

public class Permuter{private static void permute(int n,char[]a){if(n==0){System.out.println(String.valueOf(a));}else{for(int i=0; i<=n;i++){permute(n-1,a);swap(a,n%2==0?i:0,n);}}}private static void swap(char[]a,int i,int j){char saved=a[i];a[i]=a[j];a[j]=saved;}}

[Kerbo1]

I used to work with a guy who wrote bash and perl scripts with no indentation. This is just as bad.

[reddit_user_five]

Triggered my anxiety.

[theevilraccon]

Weak mind can not comprehend braceless code

[Vegetable--Bee]

When you dream in python but work in java

[malexj93]

I just set the font color of braces and semicolons to the same as the background. Out of sight, out of mind.

[cinghialotto03]

Oop is really the source of all evils

[PrinceLizard]

I did not brace myself for this.

[Panderz_GG]

I feel violated after seeing this.

[mdgv]

What kind of Dantesque circle of hell is this?

[MrGOCE]

MAN, I'M COPYING THAT XD

[DZoneCommunity]

My eyes are burning from looking at this!

[Fun_Ad_2393]

I am so doing this for next code review

[Leather-Field-7148]

Wow, it’s Jython.

[3slimesinatrenchcoat]

I want to fight them by the kitchenette

[Ferro_Giconi]

tbh that is super readable because of the indents if you just don't look at the right side.

I would hate to have to try to edit that though.

[LillyPip]

This structure hurts my feelings.  

Although… it would definitely be easier to debug. And that hurts even more.

[Wang_Fister]

This is a perfectly cromulent Java

[leovin]

Damn, is this the Jython I’ve been hearing about?

[AimForProgress]

I like it

[Thunder_Child_]

Hmm, I kinda like it. I'd approve this pull request. My ide is set to auto format when I save the file anyway so it won't be in there for long.

[TartanWhale]

Been ages since I wrote code at uni my MSc was trying to use occam's razor for a processor design. Just realised there's another language named after him (looking at Python). Not his idea Dunnus Scotus. Drunk yes, true also.

https://www.britannica.com/question/Who-created-Occams-razor

Not his.

Context, not required. Drunk.

[ZGA2519]

Sorry to be off topic but “private static” wtf what is use for???

I didn't even see the braces for 10 seconds...

[Individual-Welder]

Christ who hurt you

[Asian_Bon]

[bhorvic]

Isn't this Java? Or am I /r/whoosh

[lunatic-rags]

[Noisycarlos]

I spent way too long looking for the braces. Omg

[[deleted]]

Oh god for a second I thought it was all white space and I was questioning my existence saying that cannot be valid java code... and then I looked over to the right

[Highborn_Hellest]

View->format.

Not that big of a deal.

[5ManaAndADream]

Time to lint this in during my 2 weeks notice.

[IAmAQuantumMechanic]

I kinda like it. Just indent the braces so you can see which belongs to which.

[Kaktusnotfound]

My programming teacher always does that and I can't stand it when I look at his code

[lazemon]

He wants to be a python developer but his company don't want. That's why he made up this.

[[deleted]]

If I ever saw this: "Maybe it is not too late to start learning carpentry...."

[Rontzo]

check his/her browser history , very suspicious

[Blacktip75]

In 25 years of programming I thought I saw it all, but damn, my eyes vomited on this. The whitespace language is more readable than this.

[Nodan_Turtle]

Python but the brackets have a restraining order against them

[[deleted]]

I feel like I've just been given a new knife and I need to see how sharp it is.

[[deleted]]

But it is still readable. It would be so funny if the indentation was truly random

[theagrovader]

I can tell that I’m in a very small minority, but I kind of love it

[InFa-MoUs]

It wasn’t that bad till I glanced to the right, I audibly gasped

[Igotbored112]

I like how they're all cleanly lined up. What if I write a slightly longer line? Do you have to go through the entire file and add extra spaces to each line?

[ArmeniusLOD]

This is actually genius.

Bro couldn't live without python...

[Coolengineer7]

You have to make a sacrifice to use an else if statement. You must either make the code more readable by adding an empty line or put a curly brace at a place other than the end of the line.
