The Jason Salas Experience

Just for honks & giggles, I've been messing around with rewriting/refactoring some of the code samples I've done over the years in my favorite languages to compare syntax verbosity. Ruby totally kicks ass. Consider the following method to print image filenames on disk, using most best practice conventions for indenting, bracketing, etc.:

Ruby:
def get_all_photos
    Photo.find(:all).each { |p| puts p.filename }
end

Python:
def get_all_photos():
    photos = Photo.find_all
        for p in photos:
            print p.filename

JavaScript:
function getAllPhotos() {
    var photos = Photo.find();
    for(var i=0;i<photos.length;i++) {
        document.write(p.filename);
    }
}

C#/Java:
private static void GetAllPhotos()
{
    string p = Photos.find();
    for(int i=0;i<p.Length;i++)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(p.Filename);
    }
}
