Are the people that make these bitter they didn't go to college and get a degree and get a job?

>>55227086

No. We're bitter that we have to work with people who have college degrees but still can't code worth shit.

This. I got an on campus job where code quality fucking mattered, I self document like a mofo (Clean Code by Robert C Martin is a fucking godsend)

I join groups for classes where they don't even know how to use git and use redefine variables, copy/paste code everywhere, horrible performance, 2 letter variable names. I fucking die it's horrible

Loops are an indication of code smell. It's 2016 we don't need to program everything in C anymore.

class Multiplier {
    private List<Integer> multiplier;
    public Multiplier (int multiplicationFactor) {
        this.multiplier = new ArrayList<Integer>(Collections.nCopies(multiplicationFactor, 0));
    }
    int multiplyBy(int baseNumber) {
        multiplier.replaceAll((i) -> i = baseNumber); 
        return multiplier.stream().mapToInt(Integer::intValue).sum();
    }
}

My teachers know I sucked, but I was really good at sucking up. I can post some more of my code if yall want. Give everyone a few laughs.

>tfw I'm a coding pleb with a CS degree

I want to get more into networking anyway, but I have been coding more recently, it's fun to learn what college didn't teach/I didn't bother to learn.

Sometimes I suspect that the degree for CS is just a money hurdle, not an actual proof of ability, and that you'd be better off just teaching yourself. Shame that those of us here in the US have to pay the money wall to get anywhere. Thank god I was born rich so I could fuck off in college.

I just freehanded it the first time, which apparently I can't do because I don't program garbage Java much.

You don't belong here, friend.

>>55231040
You're absolutely right, but there are some concepts that are much easier to grasp with the help of someone experienced.

I have no doubt a committed person that's at least mildly intelligent could self-study all they need to know and succeed. That said, most people are lazy and stupid, so the degree helps to weed some people out.

If your language supports TCO recursive addition works as well but that's essentially just a recursive version of what you wrote

>>55227163
Ah, variable names. Length is not a virtue in a name; clarity of expression is. A global variable rarely used may deserve a long name, maxphysaddr say. An array index used on every line of a loop needn't be named any more elaborately than i. Saying index or elementnumber is more to type (or calls upon your text editor) and obscures the details of the computation. When the variable names are huge, it's harder to see what's going on. This is partly a typographic issue; consider

        for(i=0 to 100)
                array[i]=0
vs.
        for(elementnumber=0 to 100)
                array[elementnumber]=0;

The problem gets worse fast with real examples. Indices are just notation, so treat them as such.
Pointers also require sensible notation. np is just as mnemonic as nodepointer if you consistently use a naming convention from which np means ``node pointer'' is easily derived. More on this in the next essay.

As in all other aspects of readable programming, consistency is important in naming. If you call one variable maxphysaddr, don't call its cousin lowestaddress.

Finally, I prefer minimum-length but maximum-information names, and then let the context fill in the rest. Globals, for instance, typically have little context when they are used, so their names need to be relatively evocative. Thus I say maxphysaddr (not MaximumPhysicalAddress) for a global variable, but np not NodePointer for a pointer locally defined and used. This is largely a matter of taste, but taste is relevant to clarity.

I eschew embedded capital letters in names; to my prose-oriented eyes, they are too awkward to read comfortably. They jangle like bad typography.

Isn't that kind of the point of a higher education? You know all the complicated shit and can efficiently plan out projects, whereas the uneducated code monkeys do the manual labor. There's no need to actually code yourself.
