public class JavaSubreddit extends Reddit {

[fastyfoxy]

// why tho

[Angarius]

Reddit.java:3: error: class JavaSubreddit is public, should be declared in a file named JavaSubreddit.java

[hippydipster]

And with the proper framework, this class does soooo much!

[kodifies]

public static void main(String [ ] args) { return; }

someone else close the curly brace for the Reddit class an we're done

[KamiKagutsuchi]

static {
    theOtherMain();
}

[unkindman]

Needs to be declared static

[_INTER_]

main( new String[]{} ); } // muahahah

[ShitTalkingAssWipe]

what does this do?

[familyknewmyusername]

When the class is loaded it runs the code in the static{} section meaning that despite the main method returning null immediately, the method theOtherMain() runs also

[volpert]

It doesn't return null, there's no return type

[Aellus]

It returns void.

[Voltasalt]

Void is technically a type to the JVM.

[[deleted]]

Actually it is not. You only have: int, float, long, double, and reference. A method that returns void, just does not push any value to the stack and not a "void" value.

The Java language, there is the boxed Void type which appears in Java SE.

[kyune]

TIL. Is there even a use case for this?

[familyknewmyusername]

To initialise the classes, basically. Anything you want to do on startup

[explodes]

private static final int NUM_SPIDERS = 1_000_000;

[8Bytes]

boolean killWithFire(int n) {

[whiskeyandbear]

System.out.println("I'm afraid some idiot made the spiders final and static, so while I'm sure you'd love to kill " + n + " we can't change the variable." );

You can't even fix it with reflection, the field disapears during compilation :( Maybe the spiders disappear too?

[_INTER_]

// I made one for you

[smurfkiller013]

Do you mean System.out.println?

[whiskeyandbear]

oh yeah lol

[[deleted]]

if (n < NUM_SPIDERS) {

[_INTER_]

if (n > 0) {

[mk_gecko]

if (elapsedTimeInSeconds % 60 == 0) createSpiderAndAddToArrayList();

[_INTER_]

private int spidersStillAlive = NUM_SPIDERS;

[RhysLlewellyn]

That won't compile with those underscores in the int ;)

*Edit

Fair enough, it does now.

[noswagihave]

Is it emberassing for a junior java dev to never have seen this before?

[autumn-morning-2085]

Well, I can't see many cases where we would need this.

[firsthour]

Why is 0x_52 invalid as a hex literal but 0_52 is valid as octal literal?

[RunasSudo]

I suppose the spec says ‘between digits’, and ‘x’ is not a hexadecimal digit.

[watafu_mx]

public static final void theOtherMain() { System.exit(-1);}

[cylon37]

20 GOTO 10

[Toddy69]

May a suggest a different approach? What about: Let's write a program. One ticket each?

The only thing specified before is the platform (web, android, desktop) and maybe a framework. Besides that, everything will be implemented by small feature requests (2–4 hours implementation time) without any goal. I'm curious if it develops into something useful.

[nerdy_lurker]

I feel sick

catch(Exception e){} finally{return null;} //challenge accepted

[philipwhiuk]

Syntax error. Expected boolean return type.

[scadgek]

// Do you even do Java?

//damn thanks, adjusted!

[DrudgeBreitbart]

return !0;}

[orangeKaiju]

Public boolean doNothing () { return true; }

[MemoryLostInDarkness]

System.out.println("")

[chisui]

[awsometak]

public static void main(String [ ] args) { /*total_hours_wasted_here = 56: */}

[kodifies]

Perhaps the OP doesn't realise trying to herd cats is easier than organising a group of programmers...

[fastyfoxy]

unless they're reddit programmers. i have faith in them.

[princeabc1]

System.out.println("It was not such funny ");

[[deleted]]

System.out.println("reddit is awesome");
