| rindolf | Hi all. |
| scorchsaber | <all> Hi rindolf |
| rindolf | scorchsaber: heh. |
| rindolf | scorchsaber++ |
| rindolf | Or in Python: |
| rindolf | scorchsaber+=1 |
| rillo | ?? |
| rindolf | rillo: Python does not have a ++ operator. |
| scorchsaber | rindolf: Oh, but it does have a + operator. |
| rillo | ah. I’m new to python so i did not know |
| scorchsaber | A few days ago, it was suggested that I implement ++ using the + operator. |
| scorchsaber | And I did so. :) |
| scorchsaber | So, really, a++; is valid in Python, and it may even increment a by one. If somebody was crazy, anyhow, and if a was mutable. |
| rillo | shall i move back to perl to get the ++ |
| rillo | ? |
| rindolf | rillo: no, use COBOL instead. |
| rindolf | ADD 1 TO COBOL GIVING COBOL |
| verte | :( |
| verte | eww, magic numbers! |
| rindolf | "COBOL is the old Java" |
| verte | ADD ONE TO COBOL GIVING COBOL |
| rindolf | verte: heh. |
| rindolf | verte: 1 is not a magic number. |
| rindolf | ASSIGN 1 to ONE |
| rindolf | 0, 1, infinity. |
| rindolf | verte: LOL. |
| rindolf | verte++ |
| \amethyst | COMPUTE COBOL = COBOL + 1 |
