This is surprisingly readable. It's been formatted to use white space to guide the reader. Very much like python

To be honest that's one way to never forget semicolon or brackets, but at what cost.
SharkswithFrigginLazerBeams
Some CSS HTML compilers let you write like this. This looks like a manual attempt.
Polarbit
This code is 100% correct, the brackets are just all clumped indented on the right.
WhatTheHellHero
The brackets being grouped like that is the problem. It's a pain to trouble shoot something like that in practice, regardless of function.

Don't indent the left side and make it two columns while you're at it, Satan.

But as you can see, he is using tabs.

Python. This is Python's fault. Someone learned Python and tried to "fix" Java to make it look like Python. For some reason.
sidParker
Python is the "training wheels" of coding languages.
FloriaFlower
No and yes. It's not python's fault, but what we have here is clearly a java hating cunt who, in his mind, did this to "fix" java.

I'll be honest, if you know how to program in Python, what's so hard to read in this code? Each indent indicates a sub-code, simple!
FloriaFlower
Yes it's easy to read, but it's also harder to change.
Feriority
I mostly work in Python. I love Python. This is a disgusting abomination. Take a closer look at the right side.
stoler202
So, basically, he just makes Java code *look* like Python code, hiding the useless brackets and semicolons on the right.
Feriority
Except they aren't useless, because it isn't python. Information is obscured. If you misindent, nothing catches it for you.
stoler202
Although I agree that misindentation is a good point, don't most IDEs automatically indent for you?
Feriority
The first pass, sure, the IDE can read the brackets and guess indentation levels. When editing, though, this is a nightmare.

Quisaxaderak
As someone who knows both, don't blame python, blame the dev for not using the style libraries. They exist for a reason.
WhatTheHellHero
That is actually... Pretty reasonable.

Please elaborate, preferably with a direct link to a great resource where the unenlightened ones could gain this insight.

Unfortunately the github links were removed. But Google "languageName style guide" and the Google goes will come up

I prefer Google's style guides for the most part, but will make minor changes where I feel appropriate, which isn't often.

I find it clever and actually nice to look at. I wouldn't want to try to edit it, though, and it would be a nightmare to try to find errors.

My advice is to get a computer science degree. It's going to be very tough to become a good programmer without one. Codecademy is good /1

This is for personal use only don't need degree.

CanYouKnot
Typically either brackets or indentation are used to indicate the beginning and ending of inner and outer statements. Java uses brackets /1
CanYouKnot
Where brackets within brackets are inner statements. Like if you put quotes within quotes in a sentence. However, you also indent nicely /2
CanYouKnot
To make it more readable. Python expects ONLY indentation so a Python programmer might be annoyed by Java's requirement for brackets /3
CanYouKnot
And instead put them all the way to the right in an absolutely atrocious but technically correct way, so that the code resembles Python /4
CanYouKnot
Comically, doing this will make no difference to the computer running it, but will make any true Java developer's eyes bleed :)
xaraphina
Might as well write it all on the same line, the computer doesn't care and nobody is going to waste their life checking your crap.
ziludoSmasher
this iteratrs through the char array and prints the char value. the permute function is recursive.
HappyJello
The brackets and semicolons on the right make it all fuckey. Usually they are embedded in the code
RustyNeX
On the right hand side there is a collum of brackets which make the code very difficult to read and bug check.

PaulyPancakes
(1/?) Basically, a program is a set of steps for the machine to follow in a specific order. When coding, for more readable code a developer

(2/?) Can separate code into "blocks" these blocks are defined by these curly braces. Commonly they are put in the same columb so you know
PaulyPancakes
(3/?) which braces belong to each other, and what code belings in each block. Commonly code is indented b/w two braces in the same column

Whats depicted here is basically making the code less readable. Its doing the exact opposite and you dont know what belongs to what

In python, instead of braces (which java uses)... they use indentation to see what belongs to what
