onelinerizer VS wtfjs

Very cool. Also, Chelsea Voss did this in 2016 with Python 2 (https://github.com/csvoss/onelinerizer) and did a great talk about it at PyCon (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsUxuz_Rt8g) . She also has try/except working, maybe something similar to her solution would also work in Python 3.

Ahhh, allow me to introduce you to Oneliner-izer. Devs smarter than me laugh at your thinking loops cannot be implemented in a single line without semicolons

lambda would like a word

It’s still possible to have it be a single line in Python!! http://www.onelinerizer.com

Outdated but if you downgrade to python 2 or figure something out from the examples: http://www.onelinerizer.com/

Entire python programs can be converted to a single one-line expression.

And then there's also oneline.py, the mother of Python onelineization.

For a similarly awful idea in python, observe the onelinerizer

No, in fact Chelsea Voss made http://www.onelinerizer.com/ which can convert any Python (2) program into one line (without using eval, compile, exec or semicolons). The approaches used are talked about in this PyCon 2016 talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsUxuz_Rt8g

You're welcome.

Me in the interview: "Generally, no, a variable can only be assigned one numeric value at a time. However, Javascript is famous for unpredictable behaviors in variable comparison statements, for instance [] == ![]. There's actually a whole library built around documenting this type of behavior this for comedic value, and other more serious libraries geared towards solving the problem. So it's possible that some obscure variable assignment scenario would result in that line evaluating as true, but it's not something you'd expect to encounter in the real world. This has gotten a lot better with typescript and es2022, but still something you need to watch for a bit."

I do see that point of view, didn't think of that, there are some aspects of go which are a bit weird if you never touched lower abstraction languages, yet once you learn what they are, you are all set and you can code in anything. go has the least amount of gotchas I have seen in any programming language. compare it with loads of the weird stuff javascript does https://github.com/denysdovhan/wtfjs and go is like heavenly lol

Its a very poorly designed language. Its syntax and semantics are often confusing and unpredictable. There is no well defined mental model of how constructs work in this language.

WTF JS

😎 A great guide to Javascript that is both simple and wonderful, but also difficult and fun that seems like bullshit. -> wtfjs
