Re: What is the reason for this syntax?
So I take it you all just assume that people know the same things you
do? That is real smart, just assume that a person is going to be able
to read your mind when he comes across your work. You cannot make the
assumption that your code is going to be perfectly clear to an
individual other than yourself; this would be like expecting anyone to
have the exact same command of English as you do. In programming we
have facilities for at the very least informing someone what a given
line or block is the idea that you should not actually use this
facility because whatever you wrote is going to be obvious to anyone
reading your code is a joke.
Actually I am asking for ruby to allow me the freedom to make my own
code readable to me. I personally don't know perl so I can't comment
on Perl however I will say that the interpereter should know when you
are using a block and search for the do keyword or { and ignore the
newline. In other words a method that requires a block as a parameter
(like each) should *not* be terminated by a newline they should be
terminated either by a closing brace or tne end keyword. Grabbing the
user by the balls with respect to how the code is formatted is not a
good thing even if it is a side-effect of how blocks work in the
language.
I'm sure a word processor could be written that would dissallow using
a carriage return after only one sentence. You could argue that you
are trying to enforce good formatting rules with respect to
paragraphs, but your argument in no way invalidates the fact that
people should be able to use a carriage return whenever and however
they see fit.
Every spoken and written language has rules and conventions however
they all allow different ways to say one thing (some many more than
others.) all of them probably also have examples of unnessecary
rigidity however unlike programming languages spoken and written
languages are not exactly engineered in a controlled environment so
its not entirely possible to address those issues; it is indeed
possible with programming languages. So shouldn't things that can
adversly affect the readability of the language itself be addressed
since it is well within human capacity to do so?
