blackboard programing

And now back to our regularly scheduled program!!

c++ cool

Why didn’t they show the whole thing? it could be useful if i get in trouble

That’s C++? I thought it was java. No wonder it looks weird. And I was about to say “Jason, you don’t need half that stuff!”.

sigh I had to create an account to point out that this is just plain old C, not C++. Surprised that nobody else had done so already.

Also, this would actually be more verbose in java. Javascript is another story, though, as that is a very different language that happens to share part of the name.

If you want to do this more succinctly, try a language like Python:

for i in range(500): print “I will not throw paper airplanes in class.”

There are easily findable online compilers where you can test this code quickly and easily!

I have a better one! Python:jason=500Jason = (open(“flattery.txt”,“r”))Trouble = 500while jason==Trouble: print(“I will not s/ in class”) jason-=1 if jason==0: jason+=500 print(Jason)

Or you could do it in Ruby:a == 500until a == 500puts “I will not throw paper airplanes in class.”a = a-1end

Hah…this is the bugfix version of the the comic strip. The original, as published in newspapers nationwide, left out the \n in the printf() format string!

That actually would work!!

I like to see worms lolololololololol

Is that c#?

(in lua)

for i = 1,500 do ↵ print(“I will not throw paper airplanes in class.\n”) ↵ end

OR

while not getfenv().count or getfenv()< 500 do ↵ print(“I will not throw paper airplanes in class.\n”) ↵ getfenv().count = getfenv().count and getfenv().count + 1 or 1 ↵ end table.clear(getfenv())

for x in range(500): print(“I will not throw paper airplanes in class.”)
