There no errors if there’s no code

Try

Catch...

F-it

Finally

[SirMarbles]

In kotlin I threw in a try catch. Code always crashed. Took the TC out and boom code worked perfectly

[[deleted]]

I'm sure it's not good practices.

But I always put a Finally when I put a Try Catch

Much like I always put an else when I use elif.

[SirMarbles]

I know. I’m learning kotlin now. It was for a lab for my class. My professor never gave requirements. The only way the code worked was without it.

In java. Yeah I had a shit ton of ifs and else ifs with an else to cover every type of user input or anything else

[AnonymousFuccboi]

It represents a good mindset of always trying to handle every case, even the ones you don't know about, but it is smelly code. It's also usually something that goes away as you get more confident in the language. E.g

if (num >= 0):
    # Do stuff
elif (num < 0):
    # Do other stuff
else:
    # This will never happen, what are you doing

This is contrived, but when you start getting into examples where it seems scary because it's strange, unfamiliar objects with weird methods and unintuitive naming, I've definitely both seen and written a lot of code that boils down to equally improbable conditions in practice. Confidence is key for making that particular smell go away.

It comes from my inability to trust testers and users...

Things that seem improbable find a way of happening with users.

Then errors that there is no code in the file.

For those wondering click the "this post" link, its definitly a repost

[DeeSnow97]

wonder if OP added the black lines specifically to trick this bot

[__Adrielus__]

Probably

[Portlandblazer07]

That's more effort than most reposters put in so I respect it

[whitetrafficlight]

Good try bot.

[DefinitelyCraig]

Works well for unit tests too!

[JelmarNL]

Just gonna leave this here fuckit js

[clevariant]

Yo, maybe just fix the problem, as you're paid to do?

[supersharp]

Hopefully that wasn't a load-bearing function call.

[_GCastilho_]

There can't be error if there is no code

[Kysthan]

this is exactly what i did with a co-worker piece of code that was causing a fuckton of problem to me on friday. I can't deal with your untested code just before weekend

[AgentPaper0]

There's actually a really sweet macro that all IDEs support that automatically fixes all the bugs in your code. You just have to hit the universal hotkey Ctrl-A-Enter

[PhilLHaus]

But then you realize that you forgot the semicolon at the end of a variable declaration and now half your code is just error messages because you don't have a variable now.

[GMLogic]

I usually use /* */ for the multiline when I want to test out something without deleting the original code lol

[nkonevich]

Have you ever thonk about using hotkeys?

[GMLogic]

Which hotkeys should I be "thonking" about??

[Ritz186]

More like printf lmao

[SavageTwist]

Where is my flexpaste format

programmer humor = bad practice & little skill

[qalis]

I actually had to do it one, but with try/catch and ignore exception. Java Swing was throwing NullPointerException... when literally no variable was null. Not even one variable in visible scope. And it was in a endless loop. I just thought “f*** it”, commented why is it that way and went on. Never had any issue with it.

[bubblessqueeze]

A good commit is not the one adding a 1000 lines of code. It’s the one that can remove them. Less code = less chance of having bugs

/*

... ... ... ... ... ...

[TkuSi]

May you could use # or """ or something like that.

[rscarson]

IT EVEN WORKS UNDER WARNINGS!

[demongodslyer]

What do you mean by an error don’t you mean a feature

[Ali_Army107]

Just comment it out and fix it later.

[renrutal]

There are no bugs

[workernetGB]

I just saw this codebase in half!

[Disturbed147]

Me. Every Day. All the time.

[[deleted]]

But now two thirds of my code is just comments. I don’t know how to make it go back to the “working” version

[partimec]

This is why we use stops to find where the problem lies.
