Might be stretching the truth a little. I'm not smart, I'm just good at overcoming frustration.
I know

You finally got some replies to a photo (hurray!).
Maybe cz most of the other pix had your face cut in half for some reason... Anyway, it would be great if we saw you around the boards more often, you seem to know your stuff. Btw, you asked me once about that self-titled Morgen album, I don't think I did answer it. So if you're still around: I think that album is a must.

I'm not gonna lie, I'm pretty much the most inefficient programmer out there. What most people can do in 5 lines I do in 10 lines.

In Visual Basic, I prefer to use conditional programming with IF..THEN..ELSE instead of finding scripts that automate in a single line. I think it stems from me messing with Qbasic back in the day, which was all rigorous like that. But I like to know every little decision that's made and make them based on my own planning, so I'll write code in that way because it's easier to understand what's happening in a logical sense instead of relying on something I have less of a grip on. |

Depending on how complex the program is meant to be, I feel like I have less of a grip on things if I have a giant load of if/else statements. But I do know what you mean.
Way to nerd it up.

isn't this ongoing programmer conversation the precise reason any teacher tells you to write out the logic of your code in a flowchart first?
TURBO PASCAL MOFOS!!! hell, had i gone for a 2nd year i would have potentially learned freaking Fortran hahaha. |

Programming is incredibly easy for me because of the way it operates. There are no real ambiguities. Only logic and either yes or no and situational arguments. That works for my type of default thinking, although I'll admit I'm less cut out for situations where that's a downfall. Quote:
Exactly. You ever tried to debug someone else's code? Ridiculously hard. It could be the easiest program, but if you don't know how they structured things, it's incredibly hard to figure out what's wrong. Even when you see their process, most novice programs insufficiently comment their major code sections and without it, it's like trying to put a square peg in a round hole because both programmers are operating on a different way of thinking.

My school has always been way Nazi about writing pseudocode for EVERYTHING. They really crack down on you if they suspect you copied someone else's code, that's a good reason I guess. Everybody has their own style so it'd be really obvious anyways. But ya, debugging other people stuff sucks. In school we would get exams where they would just give us a program with a bunch of errors and we had to debug...on paper
