Interesting styling choices to say the least
-
I found this interesting JS application (a game actually) that supports a number of interesting "features" full source:
http://www.a1javascripts.com/games/bgate/bgate.html
Some of the magical features include random indentation at points, two elses for about 50 is ifs (no else ifs). Every variable is stored in a form, all the visible ones are editable, oh and for kicks the code is double-spaced. A sample:
[code]
if (1 > yourlife) {
alert("YOU ARE DEAD")
document.game.experience.value = "DEAD"
document.game.money.value = 0
document.bgColor="black"
return false
}
if (randum == 2) {
document.game.badguy.value = "Rabbit"
document.game.enemyattack.value = 1
document.game.enemyarmor.value = 8
document.game.badlife.value = 6
}
if (randum == 3) {
document.game.badguy.value = "Funky Chicken"
document.game.enemyattack.value = 2
document.game.enemyarmor.value = 8
document.game.badlife.value = 8
}[/code]
PS: For some reason code bbtags don't work, what should I be using instead?
-
randum.

I have some coworkers who double space their code. For the most part I don't know why. I can think of reasons to block code into paragraph-like chunks with whitespace fore and aft, but why double space every line?

That's what I do. I also include a comment at the top of the "chunk". Double-spacing every line would just give me a headache and make it really hard to look through.

Also I am likink bstorer's avatar and also psworx's. Very clever u guise.
-
i like
if (1 > yourlife)
just one of those odd quirks. Nothing wrong with it, just most people I know would have written
if (yourlife < 1)
kind like: for(int i = 0; strLength > i; i++) , there's nothing wrong with it, but who writes like that?

(...man, I really need a life. And I just switched to the Nagato-san icon a couple weeks ago too.)

You could try a greasemonkey script. That comes pretty close to UPDATE'ing the universe.

I hear that'll work better if executed from an IP based in Canada.
-
Canada? That's gotta be fake!

Finally managed to get it to reverse as suggested... the old one got all pixel-y anyway, I couldn't even change it, then I had to defeat some kind of giant bug and then suddenly changing it worked.
Weird.

Doublespacing happens when you save text in editors that are using different line endings. (if editors aren't very smart)
-
Speaking of broken text editors, here's a WTF I stumbled upon today: you can't undo a find/replace all in Notepad. It only undoes the last one changed. Not to mention that it takes a noticeable amount of time to complete on a file that isn't even very big!

They're probably liberal arts students. All liberal arts papers are double spaced.

This code looks a lot like the stuff I wrote long before I hit puberty.
