I know Java, PHP, and Python, and I never swear.

python can do a good job at making you cuss sometimes. I'm just one of those people who try to avoid cussing in posts

For me it was Javascript, by far, but I haven't coded in many languages.

C definitely is a language that makes you cuss so many semicolons...
I like it because its fast but I hate coding in it

Really? Is it just extremly low level like ASM? As for JS, the issue was mostly because it was trial and error. Sometimes code that is supposed to work fine wouldn't and some syntax is really cryptic. JS seemed so sensitive on little typos and stuff and it doesn't help that each browser interprets it differently.

In college we had to do JS for 3 semesters and eventually I dropped out.

C++.  Is.  gonna make me swear.

That's why I code in Java ;D

It's actually quite a bit higher than Axe is to TI-ASM.

Yeah, it's a nightmare unless you have the right tools. Chrome and Safari (and probably Firefox, but I'm not sure) have a JS debug feature that shows you what went wrong. It's been really useful to me ;D

Yeah back then we were stuck with IE 5.2 Mac (probably worse than IE4 and it failed to load most pages) and Netscape 4...

I wish you could have C speed with python code...
who wants to make it work?

Compiling Python? I'd think that's the only way to speed Py up.
Title: Re: Which languages make you swear?
Post by: ruler501 on February 25, 2011, 08:51:52 pm
there are a few projects that have speed boosts from 7 to 160 percent increase in speed. If you could make a compiler for python I'd be good that actually might help me a litlle I've been having problems with py2exe

C is like Axe for computers without the nice syntax. For example, this is valid code:

for(;P("\n"),R-;P("|"))for(e=C;e-;P("_"+(*u++/8)%2))P("| "+(*u/4)%2);

That's a particularly nasty example, but you get the picture.

X.x, strange, I saw some less complex code before, I guess it has some complex stuff like JS then.
Title: Re: Which languages make you swear?
Post by: ruler501 on February 25, 2011, 10:13:28 pm
C can be very evil like giant commands compressed to one line

He gave a particularly complex example. You could also do pretty nasty stuff with Axe, though. Even worse than that ;)

I've actually never swore while programing or because of it.  So, I guess my opinion doesn't really matter here. :P

Hmm yeah maybe you're right. X.x I think in TI-BASIC it's possible too.

I actually don't swear at all.  Yes, I'm a high schooler. :P

I'm a middle schooler maybe thats why? I still think swearing helps me program better

I don't think I ever sweared programming, I also rarely swear in life.

I think Malbolge would make me swear if I bothered to learn it.

I do not really swear even in real life, but I do sometimes yell the code that is not working. :P

I swear a lot but not as much as I used to. Online it's the same, but mostly when I am extremly mad and am not myself.
Title: Re: Which languages make you swear?

I swear to myself but never out loud in real life. i mean the f and s words.

I don't really swear out loud much except for a few rare occasions that usually involve crap in my life. I almost allways yell at code though
@aeTIos I believe these are just computer programming languages

I wonder how Perl and Bash/shell scripting languages would score. :P

I don't curse in writing, but if I did, I think *nix shell scripting would do it. I can't stand doing it for anything beyond very simple stuff—the interpreters are freaking picky over every tiny whitespace or punctuation detail, the syntax is (IMO) unnecessarily complicated and error-prone, and since parameters are space-separated by default and often aren't enclosed in quotation marks, you're constantly having bugs and glitches with any filenames or parameters with spaces or weird characters that you then get to spend even more time tracking down.

Python is my personal favorite language; it's given me the fewest headaches out of all of the languages I've ever used.
Title: Re: Which languages make you swear?
Post by: ruler501 on February 26, 2011, 09:01:21 am
I like python for exactly that reason. It still needs yelling at but not as much as my C/C++ programs.
Title: Re: Which languages make you swear?
Post by: TravisE on February 26, 2011, 09:08:25 am
The main annoyance with Python lately for me seems to be editing code in an editor and having it give a syntax error because I forgot to set the right tab/indention mode to match the rest of the source. Other than that, I'm pretty familiar with many of the language's other quirks so they don't trip me up as often.
Title: Re: Which languages make you swear?
Post by: ruler501 on February 26, 2011, 09:12:15 am
I try to always use one editing environment but I have two set up how I like. One is the default IDLE. One is PyScripter from PortablePython. So far they seem to be quite compatible with tabs and indents. I prefer PyScripter It has better debugging.

I'm not really a swearer, but I like to swear sometimes, especially in public, at school, when nothing work. Especially when doing C++/Win32. That's so low level and messed up you have to write 32 billion of lines of code to get something done.

Brainfuck needs to be added to that graph.
Title: Re: Which languages make you swear?
Post by: Deep Toaster on February 26, 2011, 03:41:47 pm
Yep. But the problem is that no one takes BF seriously, so most people would probably just give up before they ever start swearing.
Title: Re: Which languages make you swear?
Post by: fb39ca4 on February 26, 2011, 03:43:47 pm
I wonder how many times that person who wrote a brainfuck interpreter in brainfuck swore ...

C or the "god" language is....

TERRIBLE

I....HATE.....CURLY.....BRACKETS

Sorry god but i just get completely lost in all those curly brackets, its not just c that utilizes curly brackets but of all languages that do c is the most freakin confusing langauge i have ever had the diseapleasure of using. Gawd that langauge just does not work for me. Gimme xna! (=c#)

I like indentation as a means to show if your in a loop/function/class/if statement. they are easier to read. and then there are semicolons which drive me insane

1) SuperH assembly. It makes me want to swear every time I have to load data.

2) Axe. There's nothing like losing all of your data when you forget to check your array bounds.

3) C. Compiler outputs are often horrendously obfuscated.

Or a backup corruption because your code was too large to instant goto without issues.

xLIB v601b when you try to figure out why your program crashed even though you don't want to draw your sprite outside the top of the screen. Thankfully this was fixed in v602b. I lost progress often due to lack of screen-top sprite clipping support.

VB.NET. Just hearing someone say they use VB.NET is bad enough. Also, Hebrew. I only know swear words in Hebrew, so I can't do anything OTHER than swear in it.

50% by volume, 70% by mass.
