    1. @widget Ok that's pretty stupid. Like really stupid.

    2. @widget Wait, what? Scoped as in, actual scope that makes a difference to visibility of variables and such? #

    3. @widget They are? The hell?

    4. @widget Okay to be fair though, I see no reason to define variables inside if's unless you're using a higher level language like Javascript.

    5. @widget I am beginning to think my friend is full of horseapples.

    6. @widget That would be so much easier in Python. variable = value if condition else othervalue

      1. @toksyuryel Pretty sure Java has inline ifs too. Probably same syntax as C's. xD

        1. @minti Yup: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_operation

          Saturday, 21-Apr-12 20:26:36 UTC from IdentiCurse
        2. @minti (x > 0)? return false : return true;

          Saturday, 21-Apr-12 20:27:01 UTC from web
          1. @rotation return !(x > 0);

            Saturday, 21-Apr-12 20:28:23 UTC from web
            1. @minti yep, but you were talking about conditionals. That's just an expression.

              Saturday, 21-Apr-12 20:29:08 UTC from web
              1. @rotation Yeah my OCD optimization whoar programmer instincts forced me to correct it. Sorry.

                Saturday, 21-Apr-12 20:29:47 UTC from web
        3. @minti C's ternary syntax is so fugly :x

    7. @widget I probably can't help as I don't even know what device you're talking about and definitely don't own one.

    8. @widget Ah, Android? Good luck with that. I'm too spoiled by high-level languages to get along with the idea of writing in Java for anything other than necessity. :(

    9. @widget High_er_-level, then.

    10. @widget I love C for that exact reason too, plus the power it gives you.

      Saturday, 21-Apr-12 20:31:36 UTC from web
    11. You guys aren't confusing high/low level with static/dynamic are you?

      Saturday, 21-Apr-12 20:32:19 UTC from web
      1. @rotation ... wut

        Saturday, 21-Apr-12 20:32:58 UTC from web
      2. @rotation I might be, but the language most impressing me now, Go, is also high-static, so I'm not quite sure that's the only thing in play here. But yeah, didn't exactly mean "high-level languages".

    12. @widget That's not strictness, that's just bad design. if-scoped locality is very silly.

      Saturday, 21-Apr-12 20:32:32 UTC from web
    13. @widget I do not posses a smart phone of any kind.

      Saturday, 21-Apr-12 20:32:48 UTC from web
    14. @widget Yup. Although the type system is not the strongest.
