Root Admin Chewett Posted July 20, 2013 Author Root Admin Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 yeah you can have too many comments. No the paragraph style you comment isnt bad, its very useful when used properly If you are explaining the basics of the language in a comment, you are giving the code to too new people, unless you are teaching them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awiiya Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 To me the worst is that javascript lets you return different argument types. -________- Sure you can treat strings as booleans but still... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just some of PHP's quirks catches people unaware if they dont know what they are doing :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awiiya Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 See the problem is it makes building large applications just that much more time consuming. You have to go and look at the function they defined, see what they return, see if they throw errors, make sure you handle all the edge cases... etc. Whereas in a strictly typed language, you know what it returns, what it throws without ever having to read the code. And sure comments help, but it still adds at least an extra few minutes to development. They should make it optional in javascript to add a return type to functions. But I doubt that'll ever happen.

Root Admin Muratus del Mur Posted July 21, 2013 Root Admin Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 chew..it would be nice to make a top of worst code ever in md, on sections, like for example #1:user class #2:navigation process ..etc. Can't include combat here because it was so terrible that Randril had to rewrite it...that would have won the worst code top for sure i am actually serious about this, will be fun to know your opinion. Too bad I didn't ask r for the same, to compare ps, i think items will win :p ps2: could be a contest if you present the main sections and ask people to bet Maebius 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For every single if statement, because you copied it and never removed/made the comment correct :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
