I disagree. Let's try adding 0.2 and 0.3 with the JScript library of your choosing and see if it's any easier than PHP.

- hood_syntax 10y agoFloating point math has been around for a very long time, I don't get why that's what you would pick as a problem; a lot of languages have the same behavior. I'm not a fan of JS either, so you don't have to give me a reason to dislike it.
- zelon88 10y agoI wasn't necessarily giving you a reason to dislike it. I was giving you a reason why I personally believe it to be over-hyped and convoluted (and why I disagree that PHP is embarrassing by comparison). I picked floating point math as a problem because JScript would give you an incorrect answer.
- marcosdumay 10y agoJavascript being bad does not make PHP any better. There are more than 2 languages available for backend programming. Some even get both templating and IO right.
