I don't know who coded this, but if by some miracle he/she is viewing this post....

FORMAT YOUR BLOODY CODE!!
And for Gods sake, stop using formula language.

Oh, and to all the non-coders out there...until you can at least understand the relatively simple code above, please do not complain about bugs in applications. You are not entitled to complain about something you don't understand.

If end users don't complain about bugs then how do developers know what to fix? When I scroll to the bottom of an EULA and click I agree without acutally reading it, I am assuming somewhere in there it allows me to scream bloody murder and curse the mother and kids of an app developer should it go tits up. It must be in there somewhere!

Was tempted to put cool story bro, except it isn't.

There's a difference between reporting bugs and complaining about them.

Well that's lucky. I'm pretty sure that only coders would visit such a forum which would render the last line of my post useless (Well, even more useless than the rest of it).

OP,

Do you do this:

Function() {
    //add code
}

or this:

Function()
{
    //add code
}

If its the first one then GTFO

Oooh.... controversial!

jester77

meh, what's important is - does the code work and fulfill all the specification requirements?

Next coder can just run a pretty print on it.

Out of curiosity, what language is it?

Is it interpreted and the developer was saving space?

You waste space, literally.

OP Is that VBScript, because it look like it sucks.

It's Lotus formula language. In old versions of Lotus Notes there was no support for line breaks and other new-fangled code prettification concepts. Now there is.

I'm way out of date, but it used to be the case that formula language was faster to execute than the alternatives.

Worse than I thought.
It's just awful.

BTW, if you put your opening brace on the same line I'm going to kill you, really, stone dead mate.

Go and slap yourself... you're an application developer right?

I do, but only in JS.

People who care about this stuff deserve a bunch IDE code formatting defaults in the face.

Don't start me on non-standard line lengths.

Let me guess...

You're a programmer?

It's Lotus Notes 'Formula' language. Though it barely qualifies as a programming language.

And everything in Lotus Notes is bloated, regardless of how 'compact' your code is. So I don't think the coder was trying to save space.

Real programmers use notepad and the command line, not amateur IDE's.

I like IDE code formatting rules It means everyone on the team has code that is familiar looking regardless of their background..

Although standard line lengths and strong feeling about open brackets are new to me. Actually, it's just naming conventions that bother me.

Rubbish, I don't understand cars all that well but I'll still call some of them pieces of Sh*t.

I am a coder and i will complain. I hold you personally responsible for all the worlds atrocities

Real programmers used ed, not "notepad", whatever the hell that is.

Indeed, conventions settle arguments. Unless you have conflicting ones, in which case pick the default.

I once was involved in a three month battle of attrition within a team of programmers; one faction wanted 80 chars per line (the default) and others wanted it wider because their screens were large.

The People's Front Of Judea won.

Except that you're complaining about a lack of QA and you can bet nobodies going to hire programmers as testers..

this is the way you code.

QA is not testing.
