Seems that some WP developers are fans of refuctoring.
if ( ($fQ=strpos($Fid,'"'))!==false )
$Fname = sanitize_title_with_dashes(substr( $Fid, $fQ+1, strpos($Fid,'"',$fQ+1)-$fQ-1 )); |
### wrapped in <p> ?
$p_offset = ($p_close < $p_open) ? $a-(strlen($part_content)-$p_open) : $a; |
Argh. Guys, seriously, how about some objects? How about some readable variables? How about instead of nesting function calls and using ugly ternary operators… ugh. Nevermind.

Hey guys, let’s start a transaction here and expect that no one will ever change the code in any of the other 2000 files. And if they do, I’m sure that while they’ll be editing “modul” XYZ, I’m sure they will know that transaction starts here.

function _getCRServices($data)
{
if (is_array($data)) {
//this is ehmmmm, d*ment requirement from client
$not_cr = array(3006, 2416, 1026, 5604, 3501);

}
} |
Makes one wonder if there was a demented requirement, or just a demented programming technique.

Not confusing at all, no sir!.

if (!empty(fetchResult()) and isObject(fetchResult()) and is_a(fetchResult(), "objectType")) {
$result = fetchResult();
doSomethingElse();
}
elseif (isObject(fetchResult()) {
$result = fetchResult();
} |
I think the guy who wrote it was slightly OCD. And he definitely forgot that fetchResult() fetches results… from the database.
After optimizing aforementioned code and singleton-ifying the fetchResult(), number of queries made in one pageload went down to 300 from 800. Our code is just awesome.

According to my search, a lot of people do.
#ugly hack

'model' : self.model,
'interpreter': self }
exec(self.script,dict) |
// Ugly hack

_label.Show();
_label.Hide(); // Ugly hack!

return;
QTextStream in(&inFile);
QTextStream out(&outFile);
while (!in.atEnd())

} |
Of course, these doesn’t provide fun nor educational value. But one thing is obvious: ugly code is here to stay. Hopefully I’ll be able to find some more entertaining pieces next time.
