I can't be alone in thinking that LOOP usage produces nearly unreadable code. It's extremely difficult to figure out what the intended behavior is if you don't have decades of reading them under your belt.
- taeric 2y agoMeh. It is like any other construct in this regard. If you let it get complicated, it can be complicated. Most of the time, you should be able to keep it short. Pointedly, though, it was hilarious to me how much Java began to look like typical LOOP constructs with Collectors.
- darby_nine 2y agoWhy not make multiple forms, then? The readability would certainly be increased if the writer were able to move beyond "loop". This smells more like for-loop insecurity than anything.
- taeric 2y agoI'm not sure I understand the question. If you think I was arguing against any new forms, that is a failing of my post. I am a fan of LOOP for places it works. I am also all for people exploring new things, and my intent on my post was to give credit in that direction.
