real dev doesn't use if

>no true scottsman

well what do they use?

>>58875765
real programmers just write in binary. Obviously you're a phony because I have to explain this to you.

Real programmers use branch elimination techniques to remove ALL branches from their programs.

Instead of doing this:

if (condition) {
    a();
}
else {
    b();
}
c();

You would do this:

while (condition) {
    a();
    goto end_conditional;
}
{
    b();
}
end_conditional:
    c();

Which is mostly similar, except it makes break and continue completely useless.

Real devs write everything in a cascaded ternary operator.

> little baby doesn't know compilers nowadays literally gain 0% from coding at that level in terms of optimization because every single optimization your little brain can fathom in that low level an optimization compiler will already rearrange it to what is best anyway.
It's only extremely very large scope whole-application optimizations that a compiler may never catch and even in that venue they lately become increasingly smart.

It's how you'd emulate if/else using while. You could use break if you didn't want to have an else block.

>>58877724

That's not an attempt at an optimization. That's merely an example of how to emulate an if statement without if statements. I am well aware of what compilers are capable of.

>>58876782
Every if, while and for involves GOTO

>>58877724
That is not always true, especially if you are trying to take advantage of spacial locality of the cache

>>58877817
It's not always true bad a good motto is, if you're looking for low-level-and-short-scope optimizations leave it the fuck alone and only deal with the very big picture design of the software-optimization because at the end of the day it's not just a lot of work, but the compiler will do either all of the work of that or some of the work, or the gain might not be needed yet if ever.

Real Programmers Don't Use Pascal

>>58877970
I would agree that it almost always is unnecessary and that premature optimization is a bad idea. But if you are developing something that requires real time or incredibly fast performance, then you will have to run profiling and perform optimizations on certain blocks of code.
