I implemented quick sort in AppleScript many years ago (to see if I could, not because this is a good idea), and it was excruciating. Very much the epitome of read only code :D
- jtbayly 5y agoI wrote a fair bit of AppleScript. It always seemed like my code was right, but it was wrong just as often as any other programming language I use. It was just as inflexible and demanding. That was frustrating, since reading it made it look like it was easy and it didn't care how you wrote it. But anyway, at least you could read the program and understand it afterwards, whether you wrote it or not, whether you understood all the things that had to be just so or not.
