The real horror is that I've edited this 3 times realising there are bugs in my fake code.

2.1.3 :005 > ary = ['Zealously', 'LightTemplar', 'Zealously', 'Ilikestarcraft']
=> ["Zealously", "LightTemplar", "Zealously", "Ilikestarcraft"]
2.1.3 :006 > def judgement(ary); ary.each {|n| puts "#{n} #{(1 + rand(5))}" } end
=> :judgement
2.1.3 :007 > judgement ary

##Feast.rb

require 'shitpost'

def chew()
# Find something to eat
food = ShitPost.generate('poop')
# Break food down into an array of separate words spitting out any punctuation or spaces
food.split(/\W+/).map(&:to_s)
swallow(food)
end

def swallow(food)
stomach = []
churn = false
#digest words into letters
for chunks in food
if churn == false
churn = true
else
churn = false
chunks.split(//)
# jumble letters into stomach array
for mush in chunks
if churn == true
stomach.unshift(mush)
else
stomach << mush
end
end
vomit(stomach)
end

def vomit(stomach)
#regurgitate contents of stomach until empty
for bile in stomach
puts bile
end
puts "I feel much better now"
end

chew()


I only really know python so I googled a lot of things for this but unless I misunderstand what the module shitpost does I think this would work

I think the chew method can be improved by not including the swallow call. What happens when you want to write code where the shit post is immediately regurgitated to feed your young? Also the swallow method is not in scope, so it won't work. Chew should really take the argument food, not generate the food.

As a personal preference, I dislike comments which are not explaining an unusual piece of code that would make another programmer wonder why you did it a specific way. The method containing the code should generally be enough to tell you what it does.

I was writing the comments to explain to me what I wanted to program to do. I lack organization and writing things down before I can articulate them in code keeps me on track.

What does 'in scope' mean? I'm fairly green at programming and just make tools that I can't find with a simple google search.

Are you saying it would be better to have a separate method for finding food, then feed that variable through chew's parameter brackets?

The OP's post was clever but fecalfeast's was art. The form perfectly embellished the content. And his topical name was the cherry on top of the cow pie.

Critiquing his code here is like stopping a singer to correct his lyrics.

Sure, it's not problem. I like to write methods I wish existed when thinking about the top level logic of my code, and then write the methods.

My bad about the scope, your methods are all in the global scope so they are accessible to one another.

ex

2.1.3 :001 > def bear; puts 'bear'; end
=> :bear
2.1.3 :002 > def kuma; puts bear; end
=> :kuma
2.1.3 :003 > kuma
bear

In larger applications, you have to throw things into classes and modules, so that you can avoid naming collisions by polluting the global scope (you can google javascript global scope for a typical explanation).

If for example you had defined method A within method B, you wouldn't be able to access method A outside method B. Similarly, if you define methods within a class, you can access them anywhere within the class, but outside the class you have to call Class.method (or if you have an instance of the class, instance.method).

I'm just saying your method chew does not describe accurately enough what it does, which is find food and digest it and vomit it out. So when someone calls chew they will get the unexpected result of vomit. Really your method would be accurately called find_food_eat_it_and_vomit_it_out which is a method that seems to have a lot of responsibilities. If I wrote such a method, it would have calls to three other methods, find_food eat_food (which has chew_food and swallow_food methods) vomit_food. This way the code is more reusable, the stack trace will be easier to read, and if you need to update one of them, all your methods that use them will be updates simultaneously, instead of you having to update the same code in multiple places.

Even if all you use code for is one off scripts for yourself, it might help you to build a library of methods you often need to use (which you could do a very simple require to have accessible in all your scripts, saving you some copy / pasting). Naming those methods logically will help you to remember without referencing them.
