Cook The Code
Where Programming Gets Deliciously Debugged

Recipe of the Day: Spaghetti Code Carbonara

A tangled mess of logic that somehow works when you compile it!

Ingredients

  • 500g of freshly written functions (al dente)
  • 2 cups of variable declarations (the more cryptic, the better)
  • A handful of nested if-statements
  • 3 tablespoons of commented-out debug print statements
  • A pinch of syntax errors for that authentic flavor
  • Liberal amounts of copy-pasted Stack Overflow answers

Cooking Instructions

  • Begin by heating up your IDE to maximum performance
  • Throw in your variables before they're properly initialized
  • Mix in your functions, making sure to never document what they do
  • Add nested if-statements until you can't remember what you're checking for
  • Sprinkle with global variables throughout the codebase
  • Let it simmer until deadline, then serve immediately before testing
Why did the programmer quit his job? Because he didn't get arrays!

Warning

Side effects may include: hair loss, uncontrollable muttering, and the sudden urge to rewrite everything in a new framework.
