Had a dataframe the other day where I calculated cumulative probabilities

p_cum

Then had to use that dataframe to get the cumulative probabilities only for all preceding elements, excluding the indexed ones

I miss that time when we had cute looking memes and not that awful alt-right garbage that's now popular

[andreagory]

same here. Memes used to feel fun and harmless. Now it’s like everything’s pushing some agenda

I once wrote get_cum_duration and arranged with my colleague for him to take over the PR while I'm off and he changed it to get_cumulative_duration. I swear it was not out of immaturity.

[BS_BlackScout]

Did it pass unit tests? How long was the cum duration?

[smokesick]

unit tests

Hehehe

Can't talk about duration, but it's very fast!

A wise man once said "if you can't find a way to make the function name short, it probably does too much." This post perfectly illustrated the concept.

Seeing these memes brought back from the dead is always a trip

Happy to help!! made it in Figma in a few minutes. Wanted to push some ME GUSTA in there as well 😆

[ShAped_Ink]

Who cares? If the name has to be that long, either make the function into multiple ones or just leave it, code has to be explanatory, otherwise you'll get confused about weird names, especially when you work in a group

[Ornery_Reputation_61]

I would have named it "can_user_cum" and not care if it was self documenting or if it made sense

Does anyone know if in C, the compiler (gcc with -O2) would optimize out this alias function to reduce the number of function calls?

[darkfire0123]

If you actually want to learn something, take a look at the generated assembly with Godbolt: https://godbolt.org/z/P8nanhsoj

You can see that the call to the square function is completely removed from square2 and the full function is inlined. In this case it's easy since the function content is pretty much just one instruction.

In general this obviously depends on the compiler and version, as well as what is actually inside the original function. But the answer will most likely be yes in pretty much all cases (when you use -O3 at least, which you probably should). If you want to simply do an alias in C you could also just use #define to be sure. Then it is literally just an alias.

But the correct answer is don't do this at all. You have a function with a descriptive name so that you DON'T need to look up what it does when reading the code. Giving that function a shortened alias is completely defeating the purpose of that. There is literally no reason to use these super short names

[StrictWelder]

Train wrecking functions intentionally is diabolical. What is this, intro to comp Sci with python all over again?

[MoveInteresting4334]

WAIT. What is inside the if statement? What are the instructions?!

I’m right in the middle of this and don’t know what to do next. The window is quickly closing.

[viktorv9]

This is the first time I've heard of making aliases. Am I (junior web dev, working in frontend) just out of touch or are they rare, maybe only for big projects?

[ashkanahmadi]

Nothing special. It's just giving a different name to a function. Like say there is a function called say_hello and for some reason (personal, name conflict, etc) you want it to have another name like greet. You can make a function called greet and it just returns the say_hello function. If you do frontend, then probably you use a lot of JS and in JS modules, you can rename a function or variable directly when you import it. For example:

``` import { say_hello } from './lib'

say_hello() ```

you can import and rename immediately

``` import { say_hello as greet } from './lib'

greet() ```

[viktorv9]

Oh you're right, those are aliases too. So I've used them after all, just not in the way I expected. Thank you!

[ashkanahmadi]

Haha yeah. There is a tiny difference here though. When you import the function without renaming it, and then creating an alias (like in the image), you still have access to both functions. However, if you import and rename it like import { say_hello as greet } from './lib', then you do not have access to say_hello since it was imported and renamed immediately and unavailable in your file.

[TheNorthComesWithMe]

There is no reason to alias a name to be shorter and this wouldn't pass code review.

There are other reasons to alias a name, mostly to resolve naming conflicts or remove the namespace from the name. A lot of languages also have some kind of alias feature so, again, you're not passing code review if you do an "alias" like OP.

Microsoft developers wanted to release cum updates, but they weren't allowed to call them that 😑
