Still, in what language do instance variables and methods get capitalized? That's normally reserved for classes. What language in .net are you writing in?
All public fields, properties, methods, events, constants, classes, enums, namespaces, delegates and structs are UpperCamelCase. Private fields and local variables are lowerCamelCase which is the only exception to this rule, but privates are nobody else's business so who cares.
Yup. I thought it was weird when I first started doing C# but I like it a lot now. I think part of it is the functional aspects of C#. Since you can have local functions and actions (Func<T>) it helps to see what is a "local" function call and what isn't.
C# was my first language so it was all normal to me. I do a lot of javascript now and at first I was like "wtf, this style is so weird" but now since I mix about 80/20 time spent in js/C# my entire world is confused.
I like both styles in their respective languages but sometimes I just end up hating parts of both because they conflict a lot.
And that was my pointless rambling comment for the day, I hope you all enjoyed it.

Alright. That was an unconstructive way for me to put it, and I can see where you're coming from. Firstly, here is a post explaining why the "asians are all smart" thing is hurtful to a lot of people. Secondly, there is a problem where people see making racist jokes as something which is okay, because they're not being serious, or they don't really mean it. Unfortunately, that doesn't matter. If you say black people are dumb, which is a thing you said, then it just adds to the weight of anti-black dialectic. Proper out-and-out racist folk, for example, read it and think you agree with them, and that the majority opinion is still with them. Everyone else reads it, and thinks you genuinely think that, because the joke doesn't make any sense if you don't.
Do you see what I mean?
junta12 ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 16:08:55 on March 12, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
That post is too emotionally charged to be unbiased, all it takes is one person to take a comment not directly aimed at them and turn it into personal crusade.
Secondly, racist jokes are fine if the vast majority of the group in question don't take any offence. Unfortunately there's always one or two individuals who like to spoil a good rape joke....
And I believe you misquoted me; I never said black people are dumb. I said I know some black programmers, but they're not very good. I then used that same sub-comparison between caucasians and asians in a self-deprecatory way such that all races would intentionally get butthurt: i.e. africans, caucasians, and asians. That was the intent of the joke.
When comedians such as Frankie Boyle or Chris Rock say the horrific things they say about their or other races, no one bricks their windows for adding to the weight of anti-<insert race here> sentiment -- except obviously one or two nutters, but they exist in all walks of life.
Proper out-and-out racist folk probably watch family guy and agree with everything Peter says, even though that is quite clearly not the intention of its creator.
What you've got here is a really racist joke, that also isn't funny. Sometimes, albeit rarely, there is an intersection of racism and humor. This was not one of those times.

No, but they will be voted on accordingly. When you're making a controversial joke, it had better be funny. Yours wasn't even funny, so the inherent racism came through. Comedy is also the science of understanding when to "punch up," to borrow a social justice concept, and how best to approach "punching down."
You're performing an awful lot of work to avoid that you might have a race problem, which interestingly comes back to the very point I made at the beginning of this thread about our industry.
Step one is admitting you have a problem. We all do.

Comedy is also about shock factor. Imagine I was Frankie Boyle or Chris Rock, or someone who publicly says the most vulgar thing that springs to their mind. People applaud them because they know that they are joking, and that to assume otherwise would just be horrible.
I tend not to assume the worst about people I don't know, so how anybody can take what I said as anything more than a shocking joke reflects more on them than it does on me
Note that you are not either of those people, and very few actually get to that level of no one gives a fuck what they say by starting out supremely controversial.

no, I reckon it's the opposite: they start out as controversial as possible to gain an audience, and then as they rise through higher and higher pay grades and popularity they're told to tame it down in exchange for cash incentives and fewer death threats.
You're allowed to post all the jokes you want, but for them to be upvoted(and not downvoted), they have to be funny to the audience. Keeping in mind that the audience here is completely different from the audience in, say, /r/imgoingtohellforthis, which is the subreddit built for not so thinly veiled racism, or /r/blackpeopletwitter, which is the subreddit built for very thinly veiled racism.

But, my dear friend, comedy relies a lot upon who said the joke and to whom - never mind the actual content of the joke.
I could make a dead baby joke to a group of bikers and get an encore, yet make the same joke to at an abortion clinic and probably get stabbed.

It's odd how programming alters our default interpretation of certain written characters. When I saw #, I immediately tried to interpret it as a comment. When that failed, I looked for a c# joke. It took me like fifteen seconds to realize # was not being used in a programming sense, but the joke was with the zero.
Bobshayd ยท 35 points ยท Posted at 19:38:16 on March 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
The only reason I didn't do that is that I saw the 0 first, from the thumbnail, and realized it must be a programming joke about 0 before I read anything else. I managed to extrapolate the meaning of the mug from the correct symbol, then thought # was a weird symbol. Maybe @0 would have been a better choice?
I have now ceased to be amazed by the fact that there is a relevant xkcd for everything under the sun, and started being amazed that people like you remember them all.

0 is the lowest and thus first number you can represent using binary. Thus, the first element of something always has the index of 0 (except for some scripting languages which start at 1, but internally they just subtract 1).
[deleted] ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 23:05:24 on March 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
It really is the offset into the array. The first object had an offset of zero from the start, so its index is 0.
foo[0] is nothing but *(foo + 0) (on mobile, too lazy for proper markdown. Monospace it in your head)

wow, normally I'm pretty anal about this -- I'm surprised I missed it
What this means is if we have an array (using JavaScript syntax; a collection of values) like this:
var arr = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7];
Then arr[0] produces 1 even though in reality you wouldn't say "the 0th element of this array has the value 1" -- you would call that the first element.
Tomarse ยท 23 points ยท Posted at 17:27:24 on March 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Array's are zero indexed because the first element is zero elements away from the start of the array.
minno ยท 6 points ยท Posted at 17:38:35 on March 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
I prefer Python's BDFL's explanation. Half-open intervals are great, it's better to omit the high bound than to omit the low bound, and zero-indexing works naturally with those intervals.
Except that it glosses over that turning 1 to 0 means that element i is at array[i-1]. You're trading one off-index for another; we're just used to it and we arrange our code to avoid ugly off-by-one errors for both aesthetics and ease of coding. On the other hand, it still holds true that array[n] = *(array + n).
junta12 ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 19:29:51 on March 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
It's because arrays use the index as how much of an off set to look up. If 1 represented the first element the it'd have to do an extra operation, subtracting 1 from the index, every array operation then do the normal stuff (multiplying the index by the size of the type then adding it to the address of the pointer).
I'm a novice programmer (freshman Computer Science and Digital Forensics majors) and I understand that it is widely used, but I was never taught why. Teach me, why is it used and why is it useful?
jocamar ยท 26 points ยท Posted at 21:39:48 on March 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Arrays are usually stored in a contiguous location in memory and you access its values by counting from the starting address where they're stored. So, the first element is 0 places away from the start (initial address + 0) the second element is one position away from the start (initial address + 1), etc.
In fact, at least in C, the [] notation can be entirely replaced with addition. Since the array variable actually stores the address to the beginning of the array, array[0] is actually the same as *array (the first address of the array) and array[1] would be the same as *array+1 (the initial position plus one element). As for why it's still used, at this point it's mostly arbitrary, especially in higher level languages, but all programmers are familiar with it so why not.
mirhagk ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 23:56:29 on March 13, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Actually it's not because of C, it's earlier than that. It originated from a language that had only compile time arrays. And they did it to perform faster, but it was actually for compile time performance.
Yes we use this today because someone decided they needed to save a couple adds from the compilation time.
That makes a little more sense. I was quoting the guy when I said that is was arbitrary.

Quxxy ยท 9 points ยท Posted at 02:01:13 on March 12, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
There's also that it simplifies the math of some common operations. For example, assume you have zero-based indexing and exclusive upper bounds. If you want to split an array of length n so that the second part starts at element i, the bounds of the two parts are 0..i and i..n. Easy!
On the other hand, if you're using Lua, which uses 1-based indexes and inclusive upper bounds, the two parts are 1..i-1 and i..n-1. Ick. Not only is it less beautifully elegant, but it uses math which means more instructions which means slower, longer code, which means it's less cache-friendly, which means it requires more power, which means millions of people will die from global warming which means Lua is pure evil.
Well, it's maybe not that bad, but it all adds up, y'know? :)

Explaination:
Zero-based numbering is a way of numbering in which the initial element of a sequence is assigned the index 0, rather than the index 1 as is typical in everyday non-programming circumstances.
Under zero-based numbering, the initial element is sometimes termed the zeroth element, rather than the first element.
...
In computer science, array indices also often start at 0, so computer programmers might use zeroth in situations where others might use first, and so forth.
There are a bunch of languages that index starting at 1. Especially older languages and mathematical programming languages (R, mathematica, etc.). I first learned to program in ADA and then spent a lot of time using R and Python. For a while I thought zero indexing was something unique to Python.
You would literally have to have never taken a single programming class ever to not know this.
I mean, even codeacademy.org teaches that 0 is the first index in their JS class.

Doesn't make sense. If #1 meant "first" then it would make sense. But it means "number one" as in "the best" or top of the pile. Not "first" as in counting.
0-index only works in a list capacity, not as a ranking.

C#
All public fields, properties, methods, events, constants, classes, enums, namespaces, delegates and structs are UpperCamelCase. Private fields and local variables are lowerCamelCase which is the only exception to this rule, but privates are nobody else's business so who cares.

Yup. I thought it was weird when I first started doing C# but I like it a lot now. I think part of it is the functional aspects of C#. Since you can have local functions and actions (
Func<T>) it helps to see what is a "local" function call and what isn't.davidNerdly ยท 13 points ยท Posted at 20:07:25 on March 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
C# was my first language so it was all normal to me. I do a lot of javascript now and at first I was like "wtf, this style is so weird" but now since I mix about 80/20 time spent in js/C# my entire world is confused.
I like both styles in their respective languages but sometimes I just end up hating parts of both because they conflict a lot.
And that was my pointless rambling comment for the day, I hope you all enjoyed it.

Alright. That was an unconstructive way for me to put it, and I can see where you're coming from. Firstly, here is a post explaining why the "asians are all smart" thing is hurtful to a lot of people. Secondly, there is a problem where people see making racist jokes as something which is okay, because they're not being serious, or they don't really mean it. Unfortunately, that doesn't matter. If you say black people are dumb, which is a thing you said, then it just adds to the weight of anti-black dialectic. Proper out-and-out racist folk, for example, read it and think you agree with them, and that the majority opinion is still with them. Everyone else reads it, and thinks you genuinely think that, because the joke doesn't make any sense if you don't.
Do you see what I mean?
junta12 ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 16:08:55 on March 12, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
That post is too emotionally charged to be unbiased, all it takes is one person to take a comment not directly aimed at them and turn it into personal crusade.
Secondly, racist jokes are fine if the vast majority of the group in question don't take any offence. Unfortunately there's always one or two individuals who like to spoil a good rape joke....
And I believe you misquoted me; I never said black people are dumb. I said I know some black programmers, but they're not very good. I then used that same sub-comparison between caucasians and asians in a self-deprecatory way such that all races would intentionally get butthurt: i.e. africans, caucasians, and asians. That was the intent of the joke.
When comedians such as Frankie Boyle or Chris Rock say the horrific things they say about their or other races, no one bricks their windows for adding to the weight of anti-<insert race here> sentiment -- except obviously one or two nutters, but they exist in all walks of life.
Proper out-and-out racist folk probably watch family guy and agree with everything Peter says, even though that is quite clearly not the intention of its creator.

No, but they will be voted on accordingly. When you're making a controversial joke, it had better be funny. Yours wasn't even funny, so the inherent racism came through. Comedy is also the science of understanding when to "punch up," to borrow a social justice concept, and how best to approach "punching down."
You're performing an awful lot of work to avoid that you might have a race problem, which interestingly comes back to the very point I made at the beginning of this thread about our industry.
Step one is admitting you have a problem. We all do.

Comedy is also about shock factor. Imagine I was Frankie Boyle or Chris Rock, or someone who publicly says the most vulgar thing that springs to their mind. People applaud them because they know that they are joking, and that to assume otherwise would just be horrible.
I tend not to assume the worst about people I don't know, so how anybody can take what I said as anything more than a shocking joke reflects more on them than it does on me

But, my dear friend, comedy relies a lot upon who said the joke and to whom - never mind the actual content of the joke.
I could make a dead baby joke to a group of bikers and get an encore, yet make the same joke to at an abortion clinic and probably get stabbed.
It's audience, and I picked the wrong one - that's all.

I don't know about Torvalds. On one hand I can see that he doesn't want the linux kernel to suffer from the restrictions of GPL3, but on the other hand he's undermining the free software movement by letting corporations use his code.

It's odd how programming alters our default interpretation of certain written characters. When I saw
#, I immediately tried to interpret it as a comment. When that failed, I looked for a c# joke. It took me like fifteen seconds to realize#was not being used in a programming sense, but the joke was with the zero.Bobshayd ยท 35 points ยท Posted at 19:38:16 on March 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
The only reason I didn't do that is that I saw the 0 first, from the thumbnail, and realized it must be a programming joke about 0 before I read anything else. I managed to extrapolate the meaning of the mug from the correct symbol, then thought # was a weird symbol. Maybe @0 would have been a better choice?

0 is the lowest and thus first number you can represent using binary. Thus, the first element of something always has the index of 0 (except for some scripting languages which start at 1, but internally they just subtract 1).
[deleted] ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 23:05:24 on March 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
It really is the offset into the array. The first object had an offset of zero from the start, so its index is 0.
foo[0] is nothing but *(foo + 0) (on mobile, too lazy for proper markdown. Monospace it in your head)

Most programming languages are 0-indexed.
What this means is if we have an array (using JavaScript syntax; a collection of values) like this:
Then
arr[0]produces1even though in reality you wouldn't say "the 0th element of this array has the value 1" -- you would call that the first element.Tomarse ยท 23 points ยท Posted at 17:27:24 on March 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Array's are zero indexed because the first element is zero elements away from the start of the array.
minno ยท 6 points ยท Posted at 17:38:35 on March 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
I prefer Python's BDFL's explanation. Half-open intervals are great, it's better to omit the high bound than to omit the low bound, and zero-indexing works naturally with those intervals.
More info.
Bobshayd ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 21:50:17 on March 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Except that it glosses over that turning 1 to 0 means that element i is at array[i-1]. You're trading one off-index for another; we're just used to it and we arrange our code to avoid ugly off-by-one errors for both aesthetics and ease of coding. On the other hand, it still holds true that array[n] = *(array + n).

CaptainJaXon ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 00:58:01 on March 12, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
It's because arrays use the index as how much of an off set to look up. If 1 represented the first element the it'd have to do an extra operation, subtracting 1 from the index, every array operation then do the normal stuff (multiplying the index by the size of the type then adding it to the address of the pointer).

I'm a novice programmer (freshman Computer Science and Digital Forensics majors) and I understand that it is widely used, but I was never taught why. Teach me, why is it used and why is it useful?
jocamar ยท 26 points ยท Posted at 21:39:48 on March 11, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Arrays are usually stored in a contiguous location in memory and you access its values by counting from the starting address where they're stored. So, the first element is 0 places away from the start (initial address + 0) the second element is one position away from the start (initial address + 1), etc.
In fact, at least in C, the [] notation can be entirely replaced with addition. Since the array variable actually stores the address to the beginning of the array, array[0] is actually the same as *array (the first address of the array) and array[1] would be the same as *array+1 (the initial position plus one element). As for why it's still used, at this point it's mostly arbitrary, especially in higher level languages, but all programmers are familiar with it so why not.
mirhagk ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 23:56:29 on March 13, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Actually it's not because of C, it's earlier than that. It originated from a language that had only compile time arrays. And they did it to perform faster, but it was actually for compile time performance.
Yes we use this today because someone decided they needed to save a couple adds from the compilation time.

There's also that it simplifies the math of some common operations. For example, assume you have zero-based indexing and exclusive upper bounds. If you want to split an array of length
nso that the second part starts at elementi, the bounds of the two parts are0..iandi..n. Easy!On the other hand, if you're using Lua, which uses 1-based indexes and inclusive upper bounds, the two parts are

Not only is it less beautifully elegant, but it uses math which means more instructions which means slower, longer code, which means it's less cache-friendly, which means it requires more power, which means millions of people will die from global warming which means Lua is pure evil.Well, it's maybe not that bad, but it all adds up, y'know? :)

Anecdotal case in point: The only time I ever wished for 1-based indices was when implementing binary heaps. In all other cases, either 0 makes more sense or both are about equivalently ยฑ1-prone

SHAMELESS PROMOTION
My first calculus teacher always said that the analogue clock face is wrong, because it starts from 12 instead of 0. An example he always uses is when you count down before a rocket launching. You don't launch on 1, you launch on 0.

There are a bunch of languages that index starting at 1. Especially older languages and mathematical programming languages (R, mathematica, etc.). I first learned to program in ADA and then spent a lot of time using R and Python. For a while I thought zero indexing was something unique to Python.

You would literally have to have never taken a single programming class ever to not know this.
I mean, even codeacademy.org teaches that 0 is the first index in their JS class.
You'd have to be browsing /r/ProgrammerHumor either out of (morbid) curiosity or out of some twisted sense of sadism where you try to impart your stupid to others via inane text comments.

I prefer to think of it as an enumerated value, following the convention that 0 is always the unset / unknown.
Athox ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 02:05:38 on March 12, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Doesn't make sense. If #1 meant "first" then it would make sense. But it means "number one" as in "the best" or top of the pile. Not "first" as in counting.
0-index only works in a list capacity, not as a ranking.
Now get back to work you lazy fucks.
