There ought to be something like Iron Chef for programming. Naturally, the Iron Coders would each represent a different paradigm: functional, imperative, object oriented, declarative. Actually, I have no idea how this would work and suspect it probably would not very entertaining at all. I just like the idea of summoning IRON CODER FUNCTIONAL! The guy rises with a platform and it's got a little lambda on it...
Dude, that's the best idea I've heard all year.
ReplyDeleteJust to elaborate: I was thinking that Iron Coder Imperative could have a semicolon for his/her symbol (well, ok, that might offend), Iron Coder Declarative could have an arrow or a ':-', and Iron Coder Object-Oriented a dot.
ReplyDeleteAlas all the competitors would keep picking Iron Coder Malbolge and winning.
