I had a friend looking over some code I had written late one night and it came out.

Code:

if self.boss.hp <=0:
   self.boss.isdead = True
   if self.boss.isdead == True:
      self.boss.kill()

He messages me back saying not only do you kill your boss, you go back to check on it and kill it again for good measure. I couldn't help but laugh whenever he mentioned that.

I was once bored enough to type this and laugh at it:

Code:

double rainbow;

I was also laughing like a mad scientist while finishing up my Java Tetris clone, at both the things that actually worked and the things that went horribly wrong.

Haha, double rainbow.

[Zaknafein]

Mistyping "bool" as "cool" is always a laugh.
(cooleans in java are pretty awesome too)

I was making a black jack clone with an AI player that comments on the game. While exploring the jungle of non-mutually-exclusive conditions:

AI hits!
AI hits!
AI busts!
AI: I'm fine with this hand.

 I don't as often laugh at my code because of logs or debug info but I have some pretty cryptic comments. Although the days after late night coding I often laugh at the hackyness.

Code:

Don't ask.

Just wondering, why don't you import namespace std into some local file/function scope? Looking at all those std::'s makes me dizzy...

MUST RESIST URGE TO--

Code:

float w = (tank.getSFMLImage()->GetWidth() / 2.f),
    h = (tank.getSFMLImage()->GetHeight() / 2.f),
    c = std::cos(degToRad(rotation)),
    s = std::sin(degToRad(rotation))
const sf::Vector2f
    TOP_LEFT (position.x - c*w - s*h, position.y + s*w - c*h),
    TOP_RIGHT (position.x + c*w - s*h, position.y - s*w - c*h),
    BOTTOM_LEFT (position.x - c*w + s*h, position.y + s*w + c*h),
    BOTTOM_RIGHT (position.x + c*w + s*h, position.y - s*w + c*h);

//NO, STOP.

[Tycho Brahe]

not technically my code, but I got a chuckle reading the google c++ style guide:

You're not really going to define a macro, are you? If you do, they're like this: MY_MACRO_THAT_SCARES_SMALL_CHILDREN.

[Riley Adams]

I accidentally created a recursive template monstrosity that resulted in the compiler spitting out an error message with hundreds of lines of angle brackets... (I literally had to scroll through several screens of pure >'s).

From a game project in 2002 (Hero Rancher!  Capture wild heroes, breed them, and make them fight other teams!)


int D = 8;

while( 8==D ) {
  ///...do stuff, omitted...
  if( battle_done() ) {
    D = 0;
  }
}

Was reviewing some old code where there were three factions(each with a corresponding castle) being declared.

Code:

Global Red_Faction:TFaction = TFaction.Create(255, 0, 0)
Global Red_Castle:TCastle = TCastle.Create(Red_Faction, True)

Global Blu_Faction:TFaction = TFaction.Create(0, 0, 255)
Global Blu_Castle:TCastle = TCastle.Create(Blu_Faction, True)

Global Neu_Faction:TFaction = TFaction.Create(128, 128, 128)
Global Neuschwanstein:TCastle = TCastle.Create(Neu_Faction, True)

Up until then I had been assuming it was called "Neu_Castle." I am thankful for the ability to find-and-replace.

Apparently neither am I. Hilarious.

Am I the only one who puts terribly stupid things as print statements to help me catch bugs?

[MeshGearFox]

I have a bad habit of:

A) Not updating my comments.
B) Copying comments over with other block of code but not changing them to be relevant.

As a result I get things like

// Max room height -- should always be set to 30.
const int max_room_height = 32;

or

// Test if the value passed in from Lua is a number
if(!lua_isstring(...)) {}

I do this all the time.

Code:

printf("################### HURR DURR derpderpderp!!!1");

My late night code consists of

Code:

bool isDead = true;

if (isDead == true) {
   return true;
} else {
   return false;
}

At work, the majority of my print/trace statements are "fuuuuuuu work damnit" or "butts go here". I might as well be 12.

There have been a few times that I've submitted code in by accident that would spam the log with things like that so, I'm slowly learning to use more "professional" expressions.

Came across a line in someone else's code the other day that out of context made me laugh:

Code:

if(!_names[i].inUse)
{
  stupid = true;
  break;
}

My log:

Code:
