This is a function for printing a heap stored like a vector. I
forgot his exact idea. This code was sent to a course signup .

I find it hard to read, thanks to those very suggestive vars. Do you?

void my_print(int a[], int x,int t) {
    int i,s,l,j,k,b;
    s=2;l=0;
    for(i=1;i<t;i++) {s=s*2 +4;
            l=l*2+3;}
    for(j=1;j<=s;j++) printf("*");
    printf("\n");
    
    k=1;b=1;
    for(i=1;i<=x;i++) {   
                if (b==1) { b=0;
                for(j=1;j<=l;j++) printf(" ");}
                printf("%4d",a[i]);
                if (i!=1)
                    for(j=1;j<=s;j++) printf(" ");
                if((i+1)==(pow(2,k))) {printf("\n");b=1;s=(s-4)/2;l=(l-3)/2;k++;}


               }   
printf("\n");


}

I am laughing so hard that it hurts, or is it I hurt so hard that I am laughing...

I recently had to deal with the same piece of Java code where the variable 'identifier' was abused three times

IdentifierPeer identifier = new IdentifierPeer();

Identifier identifier = new Identifier();

String identifier = new Identifier().getIdentifier();

It takes a special kind of mental retardation to dream up shit like that.

It reminds me of when I was in high school, there were three brothers all named after their father "Guy Louie" and no middle names to distinguish them. I was in a class once where two of the brothers were in the same class - it drove the teacher nuts.

Wow! There's a lot of identifiers that I can't identify which identifier I really need to identify.

HaHa!! Awesome, best nightmare yet!!

That's excellent. It's like an alphabet puked on my screen with curly braces.

Wow I would have shot myself rather than read that code O.o

Solution?

KILL IT WITH FIRE

Hahaha reminds of a post I randomly stumbled on yesterday http://computegeeken...-hack-in-c.html

It's like trying to code in mandarin?

WHAT IS THIS DARK MAGIC?

Agreed, fire is the only remedy.

String identifier = new Identifier().getIdentifier();

That's just ridiculous.

I want to smack this person upside the head with a copy of C++ for dummies duct taped to a baseball bat.

Reminds me of the code we got from our teacher for a project needing a Floyds algorithm.
We used 2 weeks debugging the program because it would not work and finally found out that a k was misplaced

	public double[,] Floyd()
	{
		// initializing
		FloydPath = new int[GetNodeCount(), GetNodeCount()];
		double[,] m = new double[GetNodeCount(), GetNodeCount()];

		for (int i = 0; i < GetNodeCount(); i++)
			for (int j = 0; j < GetNodeCount(); j++)
			{
				m[i, j] = GetWeight(i, j);
				FloydPath[i, j] = -1;
			}

		// floyds algorithm
		for (int k = 0; k < GetNodeCount(); k++)
		{
			for (int i = 0; i < GetNodeCount(); i++)
			{
				for (int j = 0; j < GetNodeCount(); j++)
				{
					if (m[i, k] + m[k, j] < m[i, j])
					{
						m[i, j] = m[i, k] + m[k, j];
						FloydPath[i, j] = k;
					}
				}
			}
		}
		return m;
	}

that hurt my brain lol
