I legitimately lol'd at this. Any time I return from a couple weeks off I'm like "what year is it" + "can you repeat all the stuff about the things".

Me temporarily forgetting the structure of an if statement in Shell.

I write shell scripts only very occasionally and have to look this up every time.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago

Every. Single. Time.

Now I just skip straight to scripting it in Python.

Like this I think

if [1]; then
    echo "hi"
fi

And then there’s stupid Cpp with

if (true) {
  do();
}

Or

if THIS
  do();
endif

What's weird about the C++ one? At least that one is the same in a bunch of languages

void HelloWorld(string) {
  if (string == "print") {
    Serial.print("Hello World"};
  }
}

Solved it.

Hello print("World")

im more of a c person index[array]

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago
void HelloWorld(void (* func)(const char*)) {
    func("Hello world!");
}

(format t “Hello ~a” 'World). If I’m on vacation and come back to the land of C based languages I will have reverted to the only syntax I enjoy working in.
