#coder problems

Daily #1,695! Working with a programming language you don’t know isn’t always easy. >:|

(I did figure out what I was trying to do in the end though, yay!)

Things I can't find when coding in java -

1) Where I missed a semi-colon

2) Any understanding I thought I had to code in java

3) My will to go on

I got 99 problems and loops are all of them

To code or not to code, that is the question.

Whether t'is nobler in the mind to develop code anew, or to read thousands of lines of uncommented code and by that effort, lend them.

To read, to code no more and by that to say we mend the heartache and the thousand syntax errors that code is err to, t'is an optimisation devoutly to be wished.

To read, to code; to code perchance to compile. Aye, there's the rub. For in that code what dependencies may hide?

Okay I'm bored of that.

But seriously should I try to understand about 10k (4 files, about 2.5k each, and maybe more for their includes) lines of uncommented code so that I can copy a subset of its functionality, or should I just wing it?

You don’t know true frustration until you spend 48 hours trying to debug code, realize you are missing one line, add it in, and then have the whole program work. Recently I’m not sure what I’m questioning more, my sanity or my major choice.

What is worse: code that should work but doesn’t, or code that shouldn’t work but does?

I wish I could program all robots in RobotC
