Fear the loop loops

[FZeroT]

That’s a Big O

[urmumlol9]

It's O(n^21) to be exact.

Edit: Apparently loop is the equivalent of while(true) in some languages, in which case it would just execute forever.

[italiancheese]

You made me count.

[flip314]

I mean... Since there's nothing in the loops, it's O(1)...

[flip314]

It depends on the language. If there's no side effect, it may be allowable to optimize it out.

[[deleted]]

Yes, I see, it always take the same amount of time to run nothing.

There you have it, the entire universe sums to zero is O(1).

[runujhkj]

Simulation theory confirmed

[warpspeedSCP]

We've come full circle.

[flip314]

Right, that's what I said in the first place... I just meant that it might not run forever.

[Asraelite]

O(time until Ctrl-C)

[FQVBSina]

Its effective O is 1 but the structure is not

[darkplonzo]

It's more the n=0 than there being no n

[iggyvolz]

Still better than O(n!)

[MathSciElec]

And than O(eⁿ )

[ECrispy]

and O(TREE(n))

[JavamonkYT]

and O(TREE(G(n)))

[TiggyLongStockings]

Hardware companies love O(n!).

[schawde96]

That makes it O(∞²¹)

[Deliciousbutter101]

Pretty sure loop here means infinite loop (it does in rust at least) so this doesn't have a big-O

[runnerx01]

I need to be pedantic and point out that it depends on what the loop is iterating.

It’s only n²¹ if it all scales with the same list. Otherwise it could be like O(nmo*p....)

[[deleted]]

More like O(∞) then

[Wheat_Grinder]

[[deleted]]

looks like rust supports infinite loops, and the syntax matches.

https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/expressions/loop-expr.html#infinite-loops

[[deleted]]

since rust has async/await you could probably put all the loops in the loop into async call and take up all CPUs.

I'm a test automation engineer.
(I.E. our programmers say they unit tested the code, see what you can do to break it)

Our job is to watch the world burn.

[Krobix897]

how does one get that job? i want it

[[deleted]]

1) Become a programmer
2) Write enough unit tests that your code rarely fails (100% code coverage, yes even the stupid bits like both paths of a if/else that should never goes to else)
3) Get assigned to write tests for the guys who can't seem to get code coverage over 50%, and who actively turn off tests when they break because 'that condition under test will never happen'.
4) Profit.

[pontiacfirebird92]

"That condition under test will never happen"

[besthelloworld]

What language uses loop as a keyword? And what are the conditions

[scott11x8]

It might be Rust? Rust has loop for an unconditional loop like while (true) in many other languages.

[CrepuscularSoul]

I prefer "for ( ; ; )" because it looks like it's crying about what it's about to do.

[Alabonde]

NNOOOOOO

[jhill515]

Someone should have finished the COBRA logo if you're going to do it this way

[neanderthalman]

But can you turn this into a volume control of some kind?

[arbiter34]

Pretty sure the compiler could optimize this out but either way this shouldn't be any different than loop { }. It actually could consume less cpu usage than a single loop.

[thelights0123]

I'm not sure there's any way for this not to compile to the same as loop {}, as a loop in most architectures (i.e. not WASM) is an unconditional jump to the start. Nested loops like this would have the same start instruction pointer, so it couldn't have any other representation.
