I was looking at the differences and similarities of Dream Maker (Language) and C# (Language). You could see even the easiest of differences in one of the easiest codes.... Let's give a warm welcome back to "Hello World"!
C# Style
class ExampleClass
{
static void Main()
{
System.Console.WriteLine("Hello, world!");
}
}
DM Style
mob
Login()
world << "Hello, world!"
Further Showing that the Byond Compiler is much easier than C#. Also this is my second C# code.

There is no such thing as "a code" in almost all situations in programming. "Code" is both singular and plural. Therefore, the term "codes" is also wrong.

Grammar Nazi. Erm, no. It would be like starting a conversation about quantum mechanics, and then talking about "Heisenburg's uncertainty system". It just indicates you aren't very knolwedgeable. | |
What? ._.
Yeah, because talking about the more apt observer effect, let alone quantum mechanics in general, is normal in a topic comparing C# and DM? Given the context of this statement, and your otherwise not so clever, but ironic post; I don't so. Do you? It's obvious that anybody who does drop that in a topic about comparing C# and DM, after posting about correct grammar and code, is just trying to be a nerdy thug on the internet. In closing, you spell 'Heisenberg' with an E, and not 'Heisenburg' with a U. Can you say, "ironic-much"? | |

/facepalm people these days. I'm being honest, if your code is right as in practice and you never asked anything, what are we supposed to do? I looked, and called Fizz a "Grammar Nazi", what else!?!?!? | |
/Facepalm
This gesture indicates stupidity, usually a minor and immediately recognized slip of logic, judgment, or speech; and is performed by striking the forehead with the heel of the hand. Haywire it was directed towards Popisfizzy and Trio because what they said was very irrelevant to the subject. I know I didn't ask a question I needed C&C. | |
Troy1121 wrote:
/Facepalm Just like I said, It looks fine. Though if you want me to get really critical usually don't you say "Hello World" to the user? Or in this case the mob "src" of Login(). | |

The observer effect and the uncertainty principle are two different concepts. As a demonstration: The double slit experiment is affected by the observer effect, but the uncertainty principle has only a distant relevance. As well, if you're trying to find the exact position and momentum of a particle, you're impeded by the uncertainty principle, not the observer effect. I know what the hell I'm talking about, child. Given the context of this statement, and your otherwise not so clever, but ironic post; I don't so. Do you? Someone (hint: you) doesn't know what a simile is! Perhaps that person should go back to school and learn what some basic rhetorical devices are. It's obvious that anybody who does drop that in a topic about comparing C# and DM, after posting about correct grammar and code, is just trying to be a nerdy thug on the internet. No, I'm pointing out the fact that he's using absolutely incorrect terminology. Go to GameDev.net or a programming channel on IRC and ask for help with "a code" or "codes". See what the reaction is; I'm sure it won't be full acceptance of your wrong terminology. In closing, you spell 'Heisenberg' with an E, and not 'Heisenburg' with a U. Can you say, "ironic-much"? Yes, I mispelled a foreign name. Terribly ironic, except for the fact that there's no irony at all. I still get exactly what I'm saying across (as they'd be pronounced the same in English). The difference between "a code" and "codes" vs. "code" is much, much different. Now, I have no idea who the fuck you are, but before you start talking about shit that is obviously above your head, maybe you should put your tail between your legs and get the fuck out of here, dumbass. | |
There is ze' Fizz I know lol. | |
Yeah, because you're only a nice guy trying to inform the masses? Yeah, right. :P Really, you're just some dude throwing around their ego (by correcting people) to feel better about yourself.
The fact you rebuttled my post point-by-point, used conjecture like calling me a child, and had to add a debate about Quantum Mechanics is just you being obnoxious. Let me repeat; you're just some dude who feels better in an egotistical way by correcting people. Not to mention you're a huge hypocrite. Tryng to pass off you're own gramatical mistake as not in the same league as anybody elses, which is just ego on your part ... because if you're going to use people and their theories as examples, you might want to try and spell their names correctly (I mean, come on, that's just a given) ... e.g. trying to be clever about your knowledge of "David Bowwy" and writing his name like that makes you come off as ignorant. Now, you can blame it on misinformation or being foreign, but it still just indicates you aren't very 'knolwedgeable.' btw my point on the irony of the situation was that people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones .... as in you posting a topic about Politicians Failing with a video of these two comedians - thinking it was real. Lol. | |

No, I'm a total dick. But I'm a total dick that will help people if they're not being morons. I would like to introduce, example a, to back up my statement. The fact you rebuttled my post point-by-point, used conjecture like calling me a child, and had to add a debate about Quantum Mechanics is just you being obnoxious. Let me repeat; you're just some dude who feels better in an egotistical way by correcting people. Actually, you decided to debate quantum mechanics (and were wrong, in regards to that). I was using an simile to demonstrate that his mistake demonstrated how uniformed he was as someone talking about a major aspect of quantum mechanics but getting it wrong. Note that I said that in reply to being called a grammar Nazi: I wasn't being a grammar Nazi. The simple fact is that what he said was downright wrong, even if it is a common mistake. The proper term is not "a code" or "codes", but just "code" and nothing more. And if you're trying to be smart, you should look up the term "conjecture". What the use of "child" there was actually an "insult" Not to mention you're a huge hypocrite. Tryng to pass off you're own gramatical mistake as not in the same league as anybody elses, which is just ego on your part ... because if you're going to use people and their theories as examples, you might want to try and spell their names correctly (I mean, come on, that's just a given) ... e.g. trying to be clever about your knowledge of "David Bowwy" and writing his name like that makes you come off as ignorant. Yes, I made a mistake. I said that (it's a spelling mistake and not a grammar mistake, but I'll let that go because I don't feel like pointing out, again, that you're using big terms you should've looked up first). The thing is, my mistake was minor because it was a simple spelling error and not mangling proper terminology. Both "burg" and "berg" are common parts of German(-speaker's) names, and it was a mix-up of two letters that result in the same pronunciation. You can't possibly believe that is directly analogous to his error, which is a blatantly at odds with the common term, which simply treats "code" as a mass noun. You would never, ever say "codes" or "a code" in a professional setting becuase neither is correct. And I do have a decent knowledge of why the uncertainty principle works the way it does. I can assure you, the workings of momentum, photons, and elementary particles are quite disconnected from a single letter in the last name of a deceased German physicist. Now, you can blame it on misinformation or being foreign, but it still just indicates you aren't very 'knolwedgeable.' Once again, it was a fucking minor spelling error. If I were describe the reasons for time dilation as near-c speeds in extreme detail, yet were to spell his name "Einstien", would that immediately invalidate everything I said and demonstrate that I have no knowledge of the workings of general relativity? No it would not. Learn some basic logic. btw my point on the irony of the situation was that people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones .... as in you posting a topic about Politicians Failing with a video of these two comedians - thinking it was real. Lol. Well, let's see about that then, eh? I'm an American that was born in 1990, which likely places me being born after the time the video took place (looks like it was about the mid-90s, given the quality of the video). I have very little knowledge of Australian politics, except for the fact that they get a boner from censorship, and do not remember hearing of any major oil spill happening there. There was nothing to indicate, not from the original poster or from the comments on the video (at that time), that it was fake. And, in addition to all that, politicians are known for being ridiculous when trying to defend themselves or things they do (which happened just a few months ago). I was a bit suspicious, yea, but I didn't have any concrete reasons to believe otherwise. Also, if you're going to act like my mispelling invalidates my argument, then I'll act like your mispelling of "rebutted" invalidates yours. This is, obviously, ignoring the fact that you're using the words ego, conjecture, and grammatical incorrectly, as well as using "egotistical" oddly, and not using semicolons, ellipsises, or "e.g." properly. So, yes. "Rebutted" doesn't have an "l". You're a huge hypocrite who tries to hide behind a veil of authority when you can't even grasp how to use basic words, and don't knwo how simple rhetoric. Lol.* *Obviously sardonic, though you're probably thick enough that you didn't get that. Dumb fuck. | |
That's why it is just conjecture. You don't seem to think about what I'm saying about your 'insult.' Talk about not knowing a simile. Lol.

I'm proud to have started this highly intellectual quarrel. >_>

Alright, you obviously have no idea what you're talking about. Firstly, it is an insult, not a conjecture. A conjecture is something like, "There exists no Pythagorean triple where one base is a multiple of the other." I was insulting you, by calling you a child when you likely weren't. You see, it was an attack on your intelligence, by implying that it was no more than a little kid's. And you obviously also don't know what a similie is, either. It's a comparison made using the words "like" or "as". Had I said, "You are like a child." I would've used a simile. Now, see, you actually used a simile when you said "used cojecture like calling me a child", even though it wasn't a conjecture, but an insult. It's very, very obvious you are in way over your head in talking to me. I actually use words I know, and verify that I'm using words properly if I'm not certain. You throw out big words to sound smart and fall flat on your face whilst doing so. I can argue and back up my points; you can not. I've already said it, but I'll say it again: Put your tail between your legs and get out of here. | |
Yeah, you said: "I know what the hell I'm talking about, child."
That's not implying a person is childish ... what you did was NAME me a child. Here you are talking about proper terminology as if you know it backwards in and out, and you can't even properly phrase that sentence without naming me a child, instead of saying I'm LIKE a child. That's also what I meant by not knowing a simile. But what if I am a child? When it's juvenile to even call somebody that over a game forum. Anyway, better I'm a 13 year old kid acting like a 13 year old kid, than some 'adult' who acts like he's 16 :P | |
