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。

生存巨:

标准库的奇怪之处:它并不总是显示最佳实践,而且文档不足 硬编码FunctionX, TupleX类 缺乏属性:getter和setter是分开的,这违反了DRY,并且使得像FRP这样的事情几乎不可能实现 需要= _来初始化属性

Haskell

Sometimes the type system feels backwards. What if I don't want the compiler to infer types for my variables? What if I want the opposite, where it does constraint checking on said variables? For example, instead of inferring the type of the elements of a list, it instead makes sure that they all belong to a particular typeclass. This is a subtle but huge difference that makes it difficult for me to program UIs. It can be done, but it takes more effort than it does in some other languages. Haskell rocks for the non-UI parts, but the UI I leave to an untyped language. Allowing the construction of infinite values leads to some really frustrating errors sometimes. NoMonomorphismRestriction. Bytestring handling bites me in the ass sometimes and you don't know it until your program crashes because you mixed them up improperly. Something is wrong here, when we are losing type information that should have prevented this. Typeclasses should be automatically derived for trivial cases, like witness types, but there's a strong potential for abuse there.

我觉得最喜欢的语言是不可能选择的。动态类型和静态类型不能进行比较,所以我只列出我使用的是哪一种类型

C++:

Template metaprogramming syntax is ugly. An implicit ::value would make it much more concise ->. Why can't the compiler figure out that I'm doing a ptr.thing and just do -> for me? I hate whitespace. So the whole vector<vector<int>> has to be vector<vector<int> > makes me get the jitters and then I can't focus whenever I see that line of code and I end up trying to figure out a way to use int[][] or something Macros. I personally love the concept of macros. But with C++, I that the system is a hack I'm a hater of ;

Python:

字符串是不可变的。这样我就不能用string[4]="b" 通过引用隐式复制列表。哪个泄漏到[[0]*width]*height问题 缺少尾递归(每当我输入错误递归函数时,我必须安装IDLE以避免吐出1000条错误消息) 字典键不接受列表/字典 缺乏深度范围。当我做一个列表推导时,我不希望其中的变量影响到外部作用域

我的常用语言是爪哇语。这就是我讨厌它的地方:

5)。缺少指针 4)。异常捕捉 3)。布尔类型 2)。BigDecimal类型 1)。c#爱好者和Java爱好者

布尔值可以为空。我觉得这是违反直觉的。

BigDecimal是一个库,而不是一个语言特性。我对BigDecimal和Exception捕获的烦恼主要源于编写测试类,这些测试类必须跳过一堆箍才能完成实际工作。我应该澄清一下,我对这些事情很恼火,我不打算游说改变。

C(好吧,这不是我最喜欢的,但当时还没人做过。)

套接字库语法。 没有函数重载。 c风格的字符串。 缓冲区溢出。 神秘的语法。我不知道有多少次我查到像atoi这样的东西,拍着我的额头,然后大喊“当然!”

编辑:如果我使用更多的库代码(就像我用套接字做的那样,但那些特别糟糕),我可能会想出更多的库代码,但我已经觉得我选择C语言是在作弊。许多语言的存在只是为了取C语言的好的部分,取代坏的部分,这有点像在徒劳无益。

Ruby是我最喜欢的语言,以下是我不喜欢的语言:

绿色线程+阻塞C库=巨大的失败 慢得令人痛苦 标准库本身与其使用bang!方法 模块包含+扩展是混乱的。 “开放类”不能是范围-我想添加一个String#dostuff,但我不希望泄漏到所有的第三方库 没有二进制部署打包解决方案。
