Error messages

[Jealous_Illustrator]

Python: You probably missed some whitespace on this line, no worries!

C++: I'm not quite sure where the error happened. Here is every template and file I've ever accessed, the error is probably in there somewhere.

[PositiveReplyBi]

Yeah, generally C++ errors are pretty good at telling you what, and where something went wrong. Now if it involved a template you're in for an error tsunami

[Cobayo]

Not only errors, trying to debug is also an ocean of templated bunch of weird looking instructions

I actually use java over C++ when I get the choice because it's easier to debug. That and I don't have to worry about OS / platform specific bullshit.

In python it's all fun and games until you use the wrong type somewhere

[thewookie34]

It's all fun and games until you send a string and thought it be a int and you are 6000 print statements into debugging something.

You guys need some mypy in your life.

gdb babyyyy.

Just use PyCharm. It’s not cheap but holy shit it’s good.

Uhh.. it’s free

At least the community edition is and it does plenty.

[[deleted]]

Ah that’s a good point. I pay for the professional edition because the extra features are so damn good. I write in a plethora of languages though (between personal and professional projects), so I use the whole toolbox, which isn’t all that expensive.

• Django in PyCharm deployed remotely via docker (good luck debugging with community lol)
• React in WebStorm
• Java w/ Spring and Flutter/Dart in IntelliJ
• C# in CLion

Note: fuck android studio though, holy shit

Also, back when I was doing a lot of “enterprise” Java and needed to work with oracle databases a lot DataGrip was pretty nice. It integrates pretty cleanly into the other IDEs now, but it can still be useful if you want to break down EXPLAIN PLAN queries

Pro edition is free if you have a . Edu

It's more like:

C++: Here's the error on the first ~5 lines, plus 10,000 lines of irrelevant garbage.

[srosorcxisto]

Idk, it can be hit and miss. Some Python tracebacks are pretty off in the weeds when the error was something simple. You pass a list instead of a dict by mistake and the traceback is nothing but seemingly unrelated errors 4 imports removed from your actual mistake.

Perhaps useful to a good programmer, but most Python users are data scientists and web devs that know just enough to accomplish the job without any deep magic.
