I've always found the idea that the operator complicates things ridiculous
Given that there are interview questions on the behavior of post/pre increment operators shows that there is some subtlety to it which creates ambiguity and complexity. So given that they want the language to be accessible, it makes sense to reduce ambiguity.
- homulilly 11y agoSeems more like an idiot test to me. If someone legitimately finds something this basic confusing they are going to constantly be running into problems and aren't suited for a programming job.
- roninb 11y agoThere are also interview questions asking you to write FizzBuzz. That doesn't mean all loops are ambiguous and complex. Being an interview question doesn't really mean anything other than it being an interview question.
