I don't understand this. The language is based around primitive, flawed, simplistic OO features, right? Like "class Dog : Animal"? I never write code like that either, because it's bad practice. But you're saying they can't write code like that? Or that they don't use classes at all? How can you even write any Java that way?
- commandlinefan 4y ago> they don't use classes at all As much as they can avoid it, yes. The only classes I ever see are those that are auto-generated from some JSON or ORM processing tool - everything else is a static function.
- theCodeStig 4y agoUnfortunately, a lot of Java programmers write imperative code in Java. Although I have seen "good" Java programmers write "good clean code", it's the exception, rather than the norm. Most of the good Java programmers that I know have moved on to better languages and platforms.
- forgotpwd16 4y agoWould like to see a collection of good and bad Java code examples.
