So....
We should both be very grateful that you don't do peer review for me. I would have tucked in an anonymous function just to piss you off.

There's certain elegance to that which I can't help but admire.

At least it's all on one line.

There's a lack of prefix and postfix operators, don't you see that? The code should be corrected to:
something = Anotherthing - ((++condition == 0) ? (assignment_here = object->method()) : --someothervalue);

There are in other bits of code. This is as of now the single line of code with the most horrors I ever seen.

Well, object->method() could be a recursive call so it's not that bad.

Kodi is a home theater video/music player. It's available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. It uses a sqllite database to store video file info. I was cruising their wiki, and at the top of the wiki is this statement:
Warning: The databases are critical components of Kodi. We strongly urge that you do not interfere with
them, unless you have knowledge and experience with database designs.
Imediately following this statement are the schemas for the various tables, which includes the following column names:
c00
c01
c02
...
c23
Maybe they should heed their own warning.

Well duh! c for 'collumn'. What else you gonna name them? 
|

All rows start with an "r"?
I.e. Hungurian notation as suggested by Simonyi done right according to Joel Spolsky?

|

So the intersection of a row and a column in a table that uses this naming convention is an "rc", or 'arse"?

Yep, I've got over 100 source files chock-full of this kind of stuff. The average identifier length is about 5 characters, and eeeeeverything's global, sports fans!

I had to deal with some code like that. I compiled all of the global variables into one list and there were over 800 of them. To make matters worse, some functions had local variables of the same name in the same module. Single-letter, global variables were the ones that really, really annoyed me. It gets worse but I'll stop there.

Maybe you should port it to Excel, since that's obviously what they want.
