最近Stack Overflow上有一群讨厌perl的人,所以我想我应该把我的“关于你最喜欢的语言你讨厌的五件事”的问题带到Stack Overflow上。拿你最喜欢的语言来说,告诉我你讨厌它的五件事。这些可能只是让你烦恼的事情,承认的设计缺陷,公认的性能问题,或任何其他类别。你只需要讨厌它,它必须是你最喜欢的语言。

不要拿它和其他语言比较,也不要谈论你已经讨厌的语言。不要用你最喜欢的语言谈论你喜欢的事情。我只是想听到你讨厌但能容忍的东西,这样你就可以使用所有其他的东西,我想听到你希望别人使用的语言。

每当有人试图把他们最喜欢的语言强加给我时,我就会问这个问题,有时是面试问题。如果有人找不出他最喜欢的工具的5个缺点,那他对它还不够了解,不能提倡它,也不能利用它赚大钱。他还没有在足够多的不同情况下使用它来充分探索它。他把它作为一种文化或宗教来倡导,这意味着如果我不选择他最喜欢的技术,我就错了。

我不在乎你用什么语言。不想使用特定的语言?那就不要。你通过尽职调查做出了明智的选择,但仍然没有使用它?好吧。有时正确的答案是“你有一个强大的编程团队,有良好的实践和丰富的Bar经验。改成Foo是愚蠢的。”


This is a good question for code reviews too. People who really know a codebase will have all sorts of suggestions for it, and those who don't know it so well have non-specific complaints. I ask things like "If you could start over on this project, what would you do differently?" In this fantasy land, users and programmers get to complain about anything and everything they don't like. "I want a better interface", "I want to separate the model from the view", "I'd use this module instead of this other one", "I'd rename this set of methods", or whatever they really don't like about the current situation. That's how I get a handle on how much a particular developer knows about the codebase. It's also a clue about how much of the programmer's ego is tied up in what he's telling me.

憎恨并不是衡量人们了解多少的唯一尺度,但我发现它是一个相当不错的尺度。他们讨厌的事情也让我知道他们对这个话题的思考有多好。


当前回答

Python:

缺少静态类型 默认参数处理(特别是可以为未来的调用者更改默认参数的事实!) 需要的下划线太多(构造函数必须调用__init__) 缺少适当的私有成员和函数(惯例只是说大多数以下划线开头的东西都是私有的,除了像__getattr__这样的东西不是) 有趣的打印到文件的语法(但他们在Python 3中修复了这个问题)

其他回答

Python

__init__ 有些库很笨拙,比如smtplib self必须在方法声明中!! (3.0之前)对unicode的支持有点差 缺少内联尝试捕获 没有直接引用"this"/current模块(相反必须使用sys.modules[__name__])

Python。

虽然前面提到了python处理作用域的奇怪方式,但我觉得最糟糕的结果是:

import random

def myFunction():

    if random.choice(True, False):
        myString = "blah blah blah"

    print myString

也就是说,if块内部的作用域与函数的其余部分相同,这意味着变量声明可以出现在条件分支内部,并且可以在条件分支外部访问。大多数语言要么阻止你这样做,要么至少为你提供某种严格的模式。

此函数有时会成功,但有时会抛出异常。虽然这是一个人为的例子,但这可能会导致一些微妙的问题。

JavaScript

Every script is executed in a single global 'namespace'...something which you have to look out for when working with scripts from different sources If a variable is used but hasnt been defined before hand, it is considered a global variable Browser vendors making up standards as they please, making coding for us developers using such a beautiful language harder than it should be Case-Sensitivity - considering that there is no decent IDE for developing js with compile-time checking Workarounds (such as the use of hasOwnProperty method) to perform some, otherwise simple operations.

Groovy和Grails

动态类型 约定优于配置,假设您了解约定 你讨厌春天的一切 你讨厌Hibernate的一切 [Groovy]跨集合的常见操作不是(但最近的版本对此进行了改进)

C#

I wish I could switch() on any type, and that case could be any expression. Can't use object initializer syntax with 'readonly' fields / private set autoprops. Generally, I want language help with making immutable types. Use of {} for namespace and class and method and property/indexer blocks and multi-statement blocks and array initializers. Makes it hard to figure out where you are when they're far apart or mismatched. I hate writing (from x in y ... select).Z(). I don't want to have to fall back to method call syntax because the query syntax is missing something. I want a do clause on query syntax, which is like foreach. But it's not really a query then.

我真的到达这里了。我认为c#非常棒,而且很难发现它有什么缺陷。
