Taunting Java Programmers

Yes. I really did have this conversation with someone tonight. I've removed my side, because he wasn't listening to me anyway.

[20:07:37] i can't say waht #(()@__#*$* will compile to though. and that hurts my chances [20:07:53] ack my brain hurts [20:10:03] shit, it really does compile [20:10:10] man, that's sick. really sick [20:10:39] i hit random keys on my keyboard, and it's a valid perl program. gah

Oooooh, Comments!

If Java supported one liners, the following program would compile there too:

// look Mom, no Camel Case! jjfpa9ou8Y*$#hoifg

I fail to see what that proves, though.

That java programmers will believe ANYTHING.
Or at least anything bad about perl.
Or at least that perl is line noise.
Well I suppose that one isn't too much of a stretch.



But honestly I think it's just a humorous comment on the popular perception of perl.

Random?

One has to wonder how "random" shifted characters are... can't even blame them on the caps lock key.
