Two lines of code I wrote today with a straight face (at least for a while)

An old C system I once worked on had a routine `abortOrphans()`. :laugh:

oh my.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

just don't let Sander catch you writing leading underscores in your method names. :-D

I'm doing it consistently(*), as is the rest of my group, so it is therefore unassailably correct. (*) Our convention is that non-public values are named with a leading underscore.

I think that is a paradox. Or does it require a pair of docs? :confused:

delete this;You have my blessings on the underscore :D But why is there a comment that just puts the two words of the function name in a different order? :~ Why not change the function name to _Terminate_Users (or TerminateUsers if you want to do it right ;) ) so it's slightly more readable and ditch the comment?

I find the comment more problematic. But it's good that I instill fear in those that write code of dubious quality* :D * The quality of code shall be measured by braceless single line if statements, indentation, lack or abundance of white space, naming conventions and comments. Whether the code does what it should do is of secondary concern. Code written in Java shall be considered bad quality by default.

delete this;I do similar. Private members have leading underscores in my code. I was just yanking Sander's chain.

see, I used to care about that stuff. now it's (re other people's code) a) does the code do what it's supposed to? b) can i read it? i guess i've gotten good at b because i'm fine with just about whatever.

According to democrats, that's okay (and it's called "full term abortions" now.).

That was last month. The coding standard of this month says that functions should be named __. The argument for that is that in a sorted list of function names, you get all the actions on one object class gathered together. I have no information wha will be the right way to format code next month, or what the arguments will be, but I am really happy that modern IDEs have support for coding style changes. For newlines, indents and spacing it can be fully automated. Changing naming standards usually require some more manual work, but compared to the old days where you had to manually search for every occurence of a symbol to change it to the standard of the month required a lot more work.
