minus-squarejaybone@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up8·4 days agoWhy is main capitalized but not printf??? If they are trying to follow German rules where nouns are capitalized, I guess this explains why their version of int would be capitalized, but that’s super annoying. Maybe C# is based on this.
minus-squarerooroo@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up6·4 days agoAnd then why is Ganz in caps. I call cap on German C.
minus-squarewischi@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·edit-24 days agoCould be because Ganz is short for Ganzzahl and a noun.
minus-squarereinei@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·4 days agoSo Nat Fibonacci(Nat n) { …} ? Because Ganz would be signed int so Nat should be unsigned int?
minus-squarewischi@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 days agoI’d suggest “vorzeichnenbehaftete Ganzzahl” (maybe vbGanz) and “vorzeichenlose Ganzzahl” (vlGanz) 🤣 please don’t make that a thing
minus-squareanton@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·4 days agoShort for Ganzzahl, like int for integer.
