PHP is Wack. (Coding in a Random Language Every Day)

News: man does not know about prag_match_all, creates unnecessary for_each

I love how Pascal is in the same category as brainfuck for him 😂

You can do this is in regex? I didn't. I can't even imagine how you would do it in regex. Well, I also did it in C, so that might've had something to do with it.

Always fun to see how people that don't know PHP write PHP 😂 Great video!

Treating `echo` like a function bothered me more than it should.

the bro just set up a whole web server instead of just using the interpreter 💀

Love this series. Don't love the profanity.

Maybe I should make my own videos. All you need to do is check what the number is before the letter 'r', 'g', 'b' for each line. You don't even need to parse the game ID as you can use a counter because the gameIDs are sequential. Also, I just subtracted bad games from the sum(1 to 100) = 5050. Because you only need 1 bad pull and the series of pulls is bad.

EDIT: I do commend you on getting the answer correct the first time though. I usually have to miss a few times and tinker my way to success.

To be honest, no one who actually enjoys PHP codes php this way. If they did, they'd not like it so much. See: PHP The Wrong Way for the correct methods.

One liner: 'sudo apt-get install php-cli -y' done.

Love how at the beginning Haskell was put in the same category as Brainf**k.

This was hard to watch with rudimentary skills of PHP

ah... I love PHP, the coding for forums...

I never learned grep, can i take your review to mean its still not worth learning?

tbh it's not PHP's fault that you decided to do this without getting info on what errors are throwing

It's interesting how stereotypes about php are still stuck in the heads of people. But the most interesting thing is that your code feels old. I get that feeling about c and c++ code a lot. It always feels like it was written about 20 years ago

i am just pissed when FULL stack says he hates one particular language. he actually hates English as well :D

I haven't touched PHP in years, but this was clearly not the best code ever. :P
Regex is great by the way, I have solved so many problems with regex in the years, in many different situations and many different languages, it's really a worth to learn it.
However the parsing here does have to be done with regex, if you do this job with a bit of functional programming in Rust for example, it's quite trivial to split, map and collect everything into a data structure. Main level is the split at the semicolons, inside that you have the comas end eventually you simply split at space, all in a nice flow of code.
Not a single loop needs to be written.
Especially great if you make enum and struct fields for the color names and numbers.

You can read the entire file directly into an array: $lines = file("day2.txt");

This guy do not know PHP

Not only could you run PHP CLI, you could just set the content-type to "text/plain". PHP is not the problem; you are.

php isn’t so bad. there’s way better ways to have accomplished this

I didn’t think part one was going to work because I didn’t see you account for the fact that you can have multiple entries for each color. However, it is kind of hard to follow the code on the iPad. And apparently it did work. 😬

I'm so used to PHP 8.2 by now that I automatically thought of using a match instead of a chain of if's. lol

You can send a content type header to the browser and tell it that the PHP output is type text/plain. Then you won't have to use HTML line breaks

it could be more easy with regex, but is ok doing a lot of explodes... but "$game_possible == True"? - now I am thirsty of blood :) .

Dude run web-server to make code even worse with all those `echo("<br>")` 😂

Regex stands for rejular expression. 😋

bro typing 2005 PHP and complaining it's bad 💀

Won't be subscribing

IF SERIES, TITLE IT AS SUCK. fuck me man

There's a lot I don't understand but the few parts I did had me laughing. Awesome! But hasn't PHP improved with Version 8?

Is this guy dumb on purpose?

The better experienced programmers can make shit into something useful or usable, just hard work and deeper knowledge

I'm confused, why is type casting really bad in PHP? What language is really good for type casting?

You also don't need to cast a string to an int when the string is a number.

"100" + 1 = 101

Use list instead of doing explode, explode, etc. Your code is horrible.

Why does bro look like potato (joke, dont take it seriously)

Add Assembly and VBA to the wheel

i can do this in awk

I didn't catch which PHP version you were using. I know it wasn't 8.4, because that's in the RC stage right now.

php is fun, explode, split is better but explode is way more fun

php noob

At the end of the day PHP gets the job done, quickly... that's the reason why we all use it

as someone learning rust watching this, this is awful

just add a <pre> tag (no even need to close it) on top and outside of your script to be able to use \Ns instead of <br>s

People sometimes write bad PHP code and then blame the language for their bad code

Php = Lambo.
