(→‎Hough transform C code: shorter means shorter, not anything else)
Line 27:
:: That "shame code" wanted to be a as close as possible translation of the Tcl code, that could have been useful in comparing (languages), and if such a translation had bugs, it could have been fixed; any other non-technical word (and especially subjective one) can be left out or put elsewhere as a mean of starting a hopefully useful (teach and learn) discussion about interesting "facts", if there are any. For what is worth, I refrain from replacing working code just for my aesthetic beliefs and even for what I know or think could be "best practices" without considering carefully the reasons or trying to inherit as much as possible (by the code, or by the wiki, e.g. consider the PNM related tasks). --[[User:ShinTakezou|ShinTakezou]] 17:15, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
::: And the argument is even stronger when there are no "artifact" to be fixed, just taste. I don't even understand "self-commenting" like "good luck printing out your token stack as a table: there isn't one.". If there is something unclear in the task that you've noticed, write in the talk page. --[[User:ShinTakezou|ShinTakezou]] 17:21, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
:::: If you have a better solution (or different idiomatic solution, or an explicit translation, though those don't tend to last very long in the face of interested parties), put it side-by-side next to the existing code. I see that the original C code was replaced. Don't get offended; if you like, add your vision of the code next to the current version and move on. Yes, I realize Ledrug didn't do this last June. He was also new to the site, and there's very little codified in terms of RC netiquette, and what uncodified netiquette exists is flexible to the needs of the circumstance. --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 16:20, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
