在我看来，这在c++中是不允许的:

class A {
public:
  virtual string foo(){return "A::foo";}
};

class B : public A {
public:
  virtual string foo(){return "B::foo";}
};

int main () {
  B* b = new B();
  // In my opinion the following should not be allowed
  cout << b->A::foo() << endl;  // Will print "A::foo"
}

这似乎是正确的，但这意味着如果不允许子类的用户调用原始方法而不是新方法，就不能重写方法。

只要考虑一个集合的子类，当向集合本身添加一个元素时，您希望增加元素的数量。

一个合乎逻辑的解决方案是重写add()方法，在添加元素之前增加计数器，但是新集合的用户可以使用旧方法向其添加元素，这样就绕过了增量，导致元素计数器与集合的实际元素数量不一致。

这在Java中是不可能的。

在c++中，你可以做:

std::string my_str;
std::string my_str_concat = my_str + "foo";

但你不能:

std::string my_str_concat = "foo" + my_str;

操作符重载通常服从WTF。

A very tiny thing that annoyed me in COBOL was that there was no dedicated modulo operation. Instead you could do a division specifying that you only wanted whole number results and store the rest in a different variable. Since COBOL is very sensitive when it comes to variables that means that you ended up with a variable you didn't really need, i.e. the actual result of the division. This is the story of how I once named a variable "USELESS" - that was the most appropriate name I could think of.

这缺少了一个奇怪的特性:Python没有switch语句(尽管存在变通方法)。

在ruby/python/c中，你可以像这样连接字符串:

a = "foo" "bar"
print a # => "foobar"

Python for循环中的else。

来自Python文档:

for n in range(2, 10):
    for x in range(2, n):
        if n % x == 0:
            print n, 'equals', x, '*', n/x
            break
    else:
        # loop fell through without finding a factor
        print n, 'is a prime number'

输出:

2 is a prime number
3 is a prime number
4 equals 2 * 2
5 is a prime number
6 equals 2 * 3
7 is a prime number
8 equals 2 * 4
9 equals 3 * 3
