    I was looking into some code at work and came across this valueReturn = ( 3 * 60 ).ToString(); and something like this object.Property = true ? "1":"0"; and just want to know, why...

    Sorry, my english is bad!

    Just shake your head back and forth in disbelief and move on. Try not to think about the abominations you see in someone elses code because there are a LOT of them out there.

      I wish it was the worst... did you mind making pagination using a foreach and 2 counters?

          That's not too bad. Bad, certainly, but I'm not impressed yet. You said this isn't the worst - what is?

                    Looks like forgotten to reset "hard debugging changes".

                    Yeah, looks like debug code that's somehow stayed in the main repo...

                        You're correct, and don't call me Shirley! :)

                        It was broke, so I fixed it.

                          Totally agree I don't think myself as the best coder in the world, there's a lot i need to learn(a better english, for example).

                              nope.. what have to be done is set "property" not evaluate its value.

                              Sorry, my english is bad!

                                Then that makes even less sense. So, this code is evaluating true and assigning the result back. Okey dokey.

                                  I was looking into some code at work and came across this valueReturn = ( 3 * 60 ).ToString(); and something like this object.Property = true ? "1":"0"; and just want to know, why...

                                  Because this:

                                  valueReturn = (3 * 60).ToString();

                                  means 3 minutes, but this:

                                  valueReturn = "180";

                                  means the opposite.

                                    If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams
                                    You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun
                                    Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein
