As bat sh*t. Only really chance of excitement and action would have been if McGregor smashed him early. Besides Mayweather running away, ducking his head and bringing it up under McGregor's arms to make this near impossible, it also looked like McGregor wasn't really trying to smash, like he was told to make it a spectacle but don't try and win and you can get USD$100M.

Is it a Spanish compiler?

There was a video by Veritasium, on how Spanish needs more or less double the words in order to convey the same amount of information, compared to English.
Relate the video to the fact that the 'get length' appeared to have been written twice, you get a joke.
Well it's funny now that I had to explain everything but nonetheless, nice effort kmoorevs.

Well, I worked in Miami for nine years, and not once did I see one of my Cuban or Mexican colleagues code anything like this:
entero publico Longidut
{
obtener { devolve ese.Longidut; }
}
This sort of thing is just a classic example of a programmer who is just too lazy to correct the property name where it is used. Much easier to take the easy way out and keep the property name misspelled.
We had a programmer like this on a COBOL project. 15 years after he was fired, we are still living with the sh*tty code he wrote. There is no bandwidth in my team to rip it all out and replace it, so I have imposed a policy of "replace, don't fix" whenever we run into an issue with one of this guy's modules.
Any developer on my team who tries to get away with this kind of stuff now gets dealt with abruptly. There is no excuse for it.

It's not about patterns, it's about stupid code: that won't return, it will overflow the stack.
Shows the level of testing they did on the rest of the code as well.

That was my first thought: It should generate a stack overflow (regardless of the language).
I'm not so skillfull with C# but recent C++ compilers will throw a warning for such code. And I guess the C# compiler will do that too (both with higher warning level).
Then they did not even test their code but compile it also with a low warning level.

This usually happens by accident when they implement the property before defining the accompanying field. It's happened to me a couple of times.
I compile at the highest warning level and VS2013 doesn't catch this error at compile time.A "self-referencing property" compile-time warning would be nice to have.

What else would expect from a coder who can't spell 'length' ?
|
|
|

That was the first stupidity I saw the misspelling.

The useless FileNotFoundException catch is more offensive.

I like the optimistic (and useless) initialization of port in this snippet. 
int port = 4401;
Int32.TryParse(strPort, out port);
peer.EndPoint = new IPEndPoint(address, port); /ravi
|
|

|

I'm fine with that. When debugging, you might want to skip over the call to TryParse yet have a valid value in Port.

In that case I would #if DEBUG it.
The way it's written implies the developer assumes port will have the value 4401 if the Int32.TryParse() fails.

You can manually set values for variables while debugging C#, so initialization isn't necessary (but convenient nonetheless, although I'd remove it when done debugging)
|
|
|
|
|
Sure, but why not simply code the value you want?
|
|
|
|

Well, since that's the wrong spelling for 'length' it's safe to assume it will only be called by an error - so if it recalls itself until it crashes, nothing's really been lost, anyway.
Thus, the balance is restored in this, the best of all possible worlds.

I suspect that the code comes from a keyboard dyslexic like myself. Since he/she regularly mis-types lenght (see?) they though it would be a good idea to cater for it... unofrtuantely they misspselt it in the function too.

I recently started working with Python. The IDE I use highlights every potential typo and stylistic error as I type. A variable name like Lenght would be flagged immediately, even though it is syntactically legal.
My goal when coding with the IDE is zero flaggings of code. In the long run it is worth it.
