Edit 2: thanks for the award stranger! I'm on the beta of the 3rd party app I use and it hasn't been getting the award messages from Reddit recently, so I can't thank you privately!

u/Reddit-username_here Jul 21 '21

Also, chicken is just a reference to dinosaur now, instead of being a dinosaur. Hopefully that doesn't cause any bugs down the road.

Well, it's working on my computer, I'm gonna go ahead and commit this, alright?

No need for unit tests either. If it doesnt work ill just tell the client to use my laptop. Where i have confirmed it is working.

u/rabbitthethinker Jul 21 '21

Im actually all of your IT people. Just stop! We both know your code is going to explode dino-chicken-sapiens everywhere. So just don't do it today, ok? I'll get beer for us both if you just let today be chill and dont introduce the dino-chicken-sapiens to the test environment.

u/Reddit-username_here Jul 21 '21

Ummm, I'm sorry, but if we can do it, we're gonna do it. Just to see if it's possible.

Not in C and that’s the only language that matters…

What language works like that?

u/keithcody Jul 21 '21

Shouldn’t

chicken = new dinosaur

Cuz of evolution.

u/chrstphd Jul 21 '21

return Humans.eatingChicken() ? dinosaur : chicken;

but I already fear the integration tests :-D

2

u/truevelvet Jul 21 '21

Why? It's literally the same

Also the correct python syntax is dinosaur if Humans.eatingChicken() else chicken

1

u/chrstphd Jul 21 '21

I just wrote a possible different syntax, nothing more. And probably not python since I do not write python quite often (but I should probably)

0

u/truevelvet Jul 21 '21

Yup it's definitely not python, I just told you

I was asking why you fear the integration tests but maybe that wasn't related to your code

3

u/chrstphd Jul 21 '21

Sorry, it was a loose try about the fact the integration tests based on "regular" chicken will probably raise some funny results around Butcher.class, MealPackage.class, ChickenWings.class...

;-)

1

u/[deleted] Jul 21 '21

His is c# and maybe java but it could be different in java I'm not sure

1

u/truevelvet Jul 21 '21

Yup that syntax is the same in a lot of languages

Java and javascript share it too

1

u/rockrocka Jul 21 '21

That's the C version

condition ? value_if_true : value_if_false

1

u/chrstphd Jul 21 '21

My example was the Java rendition that picks the "Elvis" operator from C, indeed.

Oh god that second one is dirty. And also only works if eatingChicken() returns 1 for True

Oh yeah, hadn't considered that eatingChicken may be returning truthy/falsy values instead of True and False.

The other guy's syntax is correct. He is using the proper if-else syntax. Your syntax will return an error.

u/Antebios Jul 21 '21

If you let me create a DevOps CI/CD Pipeline I would have run Unit Tests, Lint tests, Code Analysis, and then Static Analysis tests. Then created an automated deployment process that would have done a smoke-test right after a deployment, and done automated QA Tests in the test environment. And then created Docker Container images and automated those test and releases as well. And finally a safe Production release with rollback available just in case. Jurassic Park would not have fucked up if they had me and my DevOps skills.

u/BaconWithBaking Jul 21 '21

probably shouldn't have camel cased that method name, ey?

Is this considered bad practice?

1

u/Reddit-username_here Jul 21 '21

Seems most Python doesn't use camel case. As someone else mentioned, using snake case can actually be important in some scenarios.

How do you do a full code box mate?

I know ` can do it but can't do full box.

Put 4 spaces at the beginning of each line, then if you need to indent a line, you'd add 4 more spaces to that line, etc.

Nah, never had any Python courses. Just C++, Java, and then did some stuff with Assembly, Lisp, Haskell, Lua, Io, Scala, and a few others I can't remember right now. But interestingly nothing in Python.

u/SirLich Jul 21 '21

While I'm not going to attack you for picking a naming style that makes you happy, I would argue that abiding by snake_case in python is more than just a style issue.

Underscores in python are very important, and communicate information, both to future-readers, as well as intelisense, autodocs, and even the interpretor.

A few examples: _foo is protected __foo is private

__init__ is a constructor.

_ is an unused index

While I suppose you can justify doing something like __myPrivateVariable, it feels like you are fighting against python to do this.

If it makes you feel better, you can use PascalCase for classes! RedditComment.likes or RedditComment.karma_score for example.

The snake_case attributes make it stand out nicely from the clases, at least for me.

1

u/Reddit-username_here Jul 21 '21

All fair! My experience with Python is on the slimmer side, but I'm helping someone with some Python code they started, so it was the first language that came to my head when I saw that comment.

Thanks for the info! If I ever use Python professionally, I'll definitely need to do some research.
