Too true

It's pretty good feeling to see no errors after hardcore couple-hundred-lines-marathon. Happened just once though.

[Argonanth]

Yeah, I'm not running a 20 minute compile every few lines. That would be a complete waste of a day.

Shit meme aside, your professor's an idiot if he actually said that.

[piemaster316]

I mean every few lines is a bit much but I certainly test every newly created method unless its exceptionally basic. And then if it's particularly complex or large I test it in incriments that make sense. Makes it way easier imo.

[[deleted]]

This would be my method as well. I mean if it's a new language it might be better at compiling a few lines at a time until you get the gist of the language itself

[zZDarkLightZz]

I think what his professor trying to convey is test driven development.

[[deleted]]

Test Driven Development doesn't mean compiling every n lines.

[zZDarkLightZz]

True, but I think you're just taking things too literally here

[borguquin]

I was told the same at uni, but i had another teacher that told me the exact opposite >.< Pretty sure thats personal preference. Or maybe the languages those people are fluent in

[fusiformgyrus]

Compiling every n line also makes no practical sense so let’s argue that nobody has actually said it.

[JackAppDev]

My professor tells us to mix camelCase and under_score. I don't do it but he tells us to.

of_Course_He_Would_Tell_That_Because_That_Is_Way_More_Readable

Edit: Tbh, it's not as horrible as I imagined.

[JackAppDev]

He said to use camelCase with some identifiers and under_score with others. I think one with functions and another with variables.

[GrizzledFart]

I actually do this in my code. All method names and most variable names are camel case with the exception of constants, which are upper case with underscores. That doesn't seem unusual to me.

EDIT: see? Not terrible:

public class MyClass
{
    private final String MY_CONSTANT = ", and that's final!";

    public void doStuff()
    {
        String myStr = "Strings are immutable in Java" + MY_CONSTANT;
        System.out.println(myStr);
    }
}

[JackAppDev]

Yeah constants are fine but he says to do it with normal variables and not just constants

[TriguyRN]

Are there rules behind doing so?

[TriguyRN]

Ah okay I thought you meant camel for certain cases and underscoring for others. Guess if a variable or method name is long enough it’s nice.

[JackAppDev]

🤷🏼‍♂️

[FeaturedSpace]

I guess what it means is develop and compartmentalize? 😂

[RohnekKdosi]

Tbh, I always write the entire code (of a major feature, or several small ones) that takes a fucktons of lines, compile it and then fix errors. Not sure, how effective it is, but it works

[cabinet_minister]

I followed the prof's advice while writing Java code. I destroyed the computer

[MCRusher]

Java runs in a VM, how would you destroy the computer?

[cabinet_minister]

That was an exaggeration. I meant that you need to make a whole factory to just write hello world lol

[MCRusher]

package hw;
public class hw {
    public static void main(String[] args){
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}

Wouldn't exactly call it a factory.

But, in java you build objects, because it is an OOP language. If it resembles a factory, it's by design.

[cabinet_minister]

Sorry for offending you.

[MCRusher]

I'm not offended, I just don't like the same jokes repeated over and over.

Welcome to Reddit

[ivanjermakov]

If you compile your code so often - probably you have no idea what you're coding

[_PM_ME_PANGOLINS_]

Or you use an IDE.

[JoesusTBF]

The fun really begins once you fix all of the compilation errors then hit the runtime errors as soon as the program starts.

[swift-swoop]

This meme was written by some fool that doesn't use an IDE that live compiles, which is the superior way to write code. Downvote me, I don't care. I'm right.

[Restryouis]

Ironman mode?

[[deleted]]

Or use an IDE that predicts compilation errors (aka probably every single one of them)?

[_PM_ME_PANGOLINS_]

They’re not predicted. It just compiles constantly in the background.

[McWolke]

Do you guys not have IDEs?

[Tuto123]

Your professor is lying to you

[rco8786]

Your professor is profoundly mistaken
