我正在对初级(也许是高级)软件工程师所犯的常见错误和错误假设进行一些研究。

你坚持时间最长、最终被纠正的假设是什么?

例如,我误解了整数的大小不是标准的,而是取决于语言和目标。说起来有点尴尬,但事实就是这样。

坦率地说;你有什么坚定的信念?你大概坚持了多长时间?它可以是关于一种算法、一种语言、一个编程概念、测试,或者任何关于编程、编程语言或计算机科学的东西。

我一直认为,任何为任何语言编写任何代码的人都会使用编辑程序。

I was working with a client of mine who had me on mostly as support and to write some of the more complex things for him. Well one day he messed up a file, big time. He accidentally saved over three hours worth of his own work, and when I asked him why he didn't save more often he replied with, "because I wasn't done". Naturally, this was not an acceptable answer, and I poked and prodded a little further. I eventually came to find out that he he has never used any editing program, EVER! Not even notepad.exe! He had been using an online CPanel editor for files! It didn't even have a 'Find' function. He couldn't ever save until he was done because he was editing the live file on the site!

不用说,我很惊讶,他至今仍在使用CPanel编辑器……

软件工程师总是诚实地告诉你他们现在在做什么,或者过去对你的软件做了什么。

让非程序员明白我在说什么。

如果每一行都计算条件,如果你写这样的代码:

Dim a as Boolean = True
If a Then
    Console.WriteLine("1")
    a = False
    Console.WriteLine("2")
Else
    Console.WriteLine("3")
End If

那么输出将是:

1
3
