Why is Java so popular?

Name: Anonymous 2010-05-28 16:52

Python is so much easier to use.

Java requires either a bracket or a semicolon on every single fucking line. In Python, just indent.

System.out.println("foo") vs print "foo"

Arrays can only store objects of a single type and
must have a specified size while lists in Python have neither of these restrictions

Why must you specify the type of the variable when you're declaring it? Why can't Java figure out something so simple?

The "for loop" in Python iterates over all the elements in the object. In Java, you must do the retarded
(int i;i<something;i++) bullshit.

Python > Java

it is dynamically typed as opposed to statically typed
Nothing he wrote implies that. If you think it does you don't understand what dynamic typing is.

current zeitgeist
The consensus is that FIOC is alright, but could be better.

I suggest a large dose of Lurkmore.
Take your own advice.

If someone would be so kind as to illustrate the appropriate ascii-art.
I remember the time when idiots spammed that worthless ASCII ``art'' too. That's imageboard-level bullshit.

I can only recommend that you go back to /b/, please.

Some people associate the ability to mix types in a collection with dynamic typing. It appears that >>6 is one of them.

Both Haskell and Python have strong (not weak) typing, meaning instances of a type cannot be cast into another type. Explicit conversions must be performed. The difference is that Haskell has static typing, while Python has dynamic typing.

You've mastered copy/pasting like a boss. Did you have a point you wanted to make, though?

Why should he have a point when he can just answer a question no-one asked, and which we all know the answer to.

Guys, I like FOIC. I really do, not my favourite language, but it's up there. It does so much right. It almost hits the mark of being the perfect programming language for making concept programs, before building them in lower languages. That's the general consensus of /anus/, that FOIC is alright.

Basically, also but you should mention that the consensus is that Guido should be shot.

i thought that is the purpose of arrays.

The purpose of an array is sequential O(1) storage.

Have you heard about prototyping? That's what the grown-ups are doing nowadays.

Prototyping is an excellent excuse to write shit code in order to eventually arrive at a good program structure.

Name: Anonymous 2010-05-29 21:21

>>29
And then build just enough that it's unfeasible to uproot and rewrite in a real language, so you're stuck with shit code in a shit language forever.

Not all problems are easily understood just from a description of the inputs and expected outputs. The process of building a prototype is one way of developing a better understanding of the problem. Prototypes are often discarded when the designers have learned what they needed. Other prototypes are extended because the original design of the prototype was probably good enough for extension.

You missed the point, it's not that prototype.
