在你看来,你遇到过的最令人惊讶、最怪异、最奇怪或最“WTF”的语言特性是什么?

请每个回答只回答一个特征。

BrainFuck语言。真的是这样!

哈哈!

整个语言本身。虽然不完全是WTF的事情,但我从来没有遇到过一种语言在我的脑海中以一种刺耳的卡通声音播放。我以前也从来没有看过代码并想要惊呼“啊啊啊啊可爱!”

这个程序显示数字1-10并终止

HAI
CAN HAS STDIO?
IM IN YR LOOP UPPIN YR VAR TIL BOTHSAEM VAR AN 10
    VISIBLE SUM OF VAR AN 1
IM OUTTA YR LOOP
KTHXBYE

Haskell's use of Maybe and Just. Maybe a is a type constructor that returns a type of Just a, but Maybe Int won't accept just an Int, it requires it to be a Just Int or Nothing. So in essence in haskell parlance Just Int is about as much of an Int as an apple is an orange. The only connection is that Just 5 returns a type of Maybe Interger, which can be constructed with the function Just and an Integer argument. This makes sense but is about as hard to explain as it can theoretically be, which is the purpose of haskell right? So is Just really JustKindaLikeButNotAtAll yea sorta, and is Maybe really a KindaLooksLikeOrIsNothing, yea sorta again.

-- Create a function that returns a Maybe Int, and return a 5, which know is definitly Int'able
>  let x :: Maybe Int; x = 5;
<interactive>:1:24:
    No instance for (Num (Maybe Int))
      arising from the literal `5' at <interactive>:1:24
    Possible fix: add an instance declaration for (Num (Maybe Int))
    In the expression: 5
    In the definition of `x': x = 5

>  Just 5  
Just 5
it :: Maybe Integer

    -- Create a function x which takes an Int
>  let x :: Int -> Int; x _ = 0;
x :: Int -> Int
-- Try to give it a Just Int
>  x $ Just 5                   

<interactive>:1:4:
    Couldn't match expected type `Int' against inferred type `Maybe t'
    In the second argument of `($)', namely `Just 5'
    In the expression: x $ Just 5
    In the definition of `it': it = x $ Just 5

祝你好运读到这篇文章,我希望它是正确的。

X = X + 1

当我还是初学者的时候,这很难消化,而现在函数式语言不使用它了,这就更难了!

如果你不明白这有多奇怪:把等号看作断言语句,而不是赋值操作,就像你在基础代数中经常做的那样,那么这相当于说“0 = 1”。

两个字:多重继承。这毫无意义,只会制造麻烦。

编辑——我指的是c++中的MI,而不是Java和其他语言中的mixins之类的。

我很惊讶没有人提到大多数类c语言中丑陋的开关case实现

switch (someInt) {
    case 1:
    case 2: System.out.println("Forgot a break, idiot!");
    case 3: System.out.println("Now you're doing the wrong thing and maybe need hours to find the missing break muahahahaha");
            break;
    default: System.out.println("This should never happen -,-");        
}

好在新语言正确地实现了它。
