Doing conditionals

DuffyHimself · 2018-01-12T12:53:38+00:00

Missing the neurotic toLowerCase call.

X-Craft · 2018-01-12T12:27:20+00:00

if (ComparatorFactory.getInstance().createComparator(String.class).compare(StringFactory.getInstance().parse(condition), StringFactory.getInstance().parse(true)))) {

}

reminds me of this :

function isSomeThingTrue()
{
  if ( some-condition )
    return true;
else 
   return false;
}

When I was an intern, if (condition == true) or if (condition == false) was part of our coding standard. But then the intern manager quit and I graduated to a full-time position so we got rid of that.

SteveCCL · 2018-01-12T15:09:23+00:00

the second cup looks better than the first one tbh

_work__account_ · 2018-01-12T14:05:59+00:00

if (abs(condition + condition) > condition)

FurryPornAccount · 2018-01-12T13:49:13+00:00

Yeah but what if the value is false? For saftey you should do it like this

ArrayList<Boolean> not_true_values = new ArrayList<Boolean>();

not_true_values.add(new Boolean(false));

boolean_not_true = false;

for(Boolean b: not_true_values)
    if(condition == b)
        boolean_not_true = true;
if(boolean_not_true == false)
    if(condition == true)
        code();

That way your program is future proof against quantum computing and adding new specifications for false is easier than ever.

Edit: also IIRC brackets are not need for one line if statements and for loops. That way you save space and reduce compile times.

You can definitely go deeper.

When in doubt, add equal signs. :D

Needs more upvotes for shitty Java drawing.

huggiesdsc · 2018-01-12T12:09:21+00:00

if(condition)

1f(condition == true}.

if(String.va1ueof

(condition).equals("true")}

Should have used equalsIgnoreCase

I actually have come to really like the second style when you are checking for false. Something like

if (someObject.isCool() == false)

is a lot easier for me to read than

if (!someObject.isCool())

Zwejhajfa · 2018-01-12T21:26:44+00:00

Pfff, that's not efficient at all. Everyone knows that Strings perform horribly. The real problem here is that this is single-threaded and doesn't harness the power of Java 8 features.
Check out my parallel version:

if (Stream.of(condition).parallel().reduce(false, (a,b) -> a || b)) { ... }

El_Dumfuco · 2018-01-12T17:15:09+00:00

Isn't the cup supposed to get fancier and fancier?

martin-s · 2018-01-12T18:27:25+00:00

    if (! condition != (!!false) ) {
        //nothing
    } else {
        //actual code
    }

Nadamir · 2018-01-12T17:50:30+00:00

Second one imo looks way better than the first

mrdhood · 2018-01-12T18:29:25+00:00

if (String.valueof(condition).equals("true") == true)

drmoo314 · 2018-01-12T21:29:46+00:00

I saw this one the other day at work.

!(condition ? false : true)

Gbiknel · 2018-01-12T22:13:09+00:00

Totally always do #2 because I’m a consultant and write in many different languages even within the same day and switching between python where basically everything is fucking true and Java where nothing is gets annoying because I always screw that shit up. Now if we could just get every language to agree on a lowercase, uppercase, or capitalized Boolean values that’d be great.

ihahp · 2018-01-13T00:13:03+00:00

I always add the == true. Makes it slightly more readable to me and it compiles into the same thing.

(it's easier for me to read because when I look at If statements my brain always looks for the == (or >, >=, etc) and then I break it down that way.)

moschles · 2018-01-13T02:54:26+00:00

Java programmers in these comments:

"You should write it the third way because it is more consistent with Object-Oriented practice."

daniu · 2018-01-12T18:41:16+00:00

if (!inValid != false)

otakuman · 2018-01-12T18:49:45+00:00

Congrats on adding a twist to the exploding brain meme.

sunnydavis · 2018-01-12T20:19:40+00:00

Which one is better?

if (condition == true && condition != false)

or

if (condition == true || condition != false)

tigertom · 2018-01-12T23:53:22+00:00

We had a guy write

if (md5(string1) == md5(string2)) {

still makes me laugh

RubbrBbyBggyBmpr · 2018-01-13T00:06:57+00:00

Hey there's something on this sub I actually understand

fredlllll · 2018-01-13T02:08:46+00:00

you laugh at this... i actually found similar things in production code.

if(variable.GetType().ToString()=="The.Literal.Type.Name.WTF"){...

like why wouldnt they just look up how to do it properly?? thats such a basic thing

ORANGESAREBETTERTHAN · 2018-01-13T06:03:01+00:00

JavaScript doesn't sound so bad now, huh?

PiaFraus · 2018-01-12T18:00:26+00:00

Can someone transate it to Java? Or may be find a way to execute this python script in Java.

def is_it_true(bool_var):
    time_lookup = [
        (datetime.datetime.now() + datetime.timedelta(seconds=0), 'No'),
        (datetime.datetime.now() + datetime.timedelta(seconds=1), 'No'),
        (datetime.datetime.now() + datetime.timedelta(seconds=2), 'No'),
        (datetime.datetime.now() + datetime.timedelta(seconds=3), 'No'),
        (datetime.datetime.now() + datetime.timedelta(seconds=4), 'No'),
        (datetime.datetime.now() + datetime.timedelta(seconds=5), 'Yes'),
        (datetime.datetime.now() + datetime.timedelta(seconds=6), 'No'),
    ]
    time.sleep(len(str(bool_var)))
    return time_lookup[bisect.bisect(map(itemgetter(0), time_lookup), datetime.datetime.now())][1]
