你遇到过的源代码中最好的注释是什么?


当前回答

这一点对其他人来说很有趣,但对我来说就不那么有趣了。我从一个开发人员那里继承了代码(ASP),而他自己也继承了它。第一个程序员编写了一些很难理解的代码。第二个开发者添加了如下评论(为了保护不那么无辜的人,名字被隐藏了):

'This code was written by **************.
'I haven't a clue what it does. He hasn't a clue what it does.
'Nobody else has a clue what it does or how it does it.
'It is something to do with data but **** knows what.
'The ******* still works so please do not change this code,
'even though it is a complete pile of ****.

那我为什么不觉得有趣呢?嗯,这是一个客户内部网的ASP代码。

...正是那位顾客向我强调了这条评论。

:-(

有一些旧的javascript代码,写得很好。然后是一条评论线

// and there is where the dragon lives

接下来是一个功能,4个人花了一天时间来理解它在做什么。最后我们意识到它根本没用,什么都没有。

#ifdef TRACE
#undef TRACE     /* All your trace are belong to us. */
#endif
#define TRACE ....

我看到有人对代码的评论:

// This comment is self explanatory.

我猜他是想说“可变的”,但这个错误造成了一个有趣的评论……想想这里的循环逻辑,以及写它的徒劳。

// sometimes I believe compiler ignores all my comments
// If this comment is removed the program will blow up
