Funny.... but:
In a past job we had some ada code in our codebase that was just awful looking. It was machine translated from fortran to ada. From what I could tell, it was just a few files that were translated and then fixed up and checked in before they gave up on that conversion project.
we nicknamed such code "ada-tran"
Thus the I feel the new translated code should be called "Forscript"
- kbenson 9y agoTo my understanding, Emscripten thankfully does not attempt to keep the JS sane for humamn consumption at all. It's basically a higher level assembly language that targets a browser. What Emscripten does is more compiling to JS, not translating to it. > we nicknamed such code "ada-tran" If Fortran -> Ada is ada-tran, then wouldn't Fortran -> Javascript be Javascran? :)
- microcolonel 9y agoIt better not be Forscript.
