Found this in a API from a big company. NDA prevent me from telling the name.
if(index < 1024 && index > 1024)

    Looks like someone wants it to work only when index == 1024

    @azous well, it's always false you see it never works
    Replace with if (false)

    Simple program and result...

    @pacohojaverde any idea why ?

    @ilbreebchi because it’s a logical and, the index isn’t < 1024 **and** > 1024 at the same time, it’s a logical contradiction. So it’s always false.

    Resharper would probably flag it as such.

    this would have made sense in case of ORing floats ..

    @VTCoder oh yeah, I wasn't thinking properly.
    Thank you for opening my eyes

    Well, I've seen someone trying to prank his fellow devs by using the same condition just with <= and >= to obfuscate a simple ==.
    Embarassing how long it took me to realize.. Still facepalming when I remember that

    How can index be larger yet at the same time smaller than 1024?

    @pacohojaverde C#?

    P.S. - if it is, I could tell from its resemblance to Java syntax but its application of UpperCamelCase to everything.

    Edit: just noticed the “*.cs” in the console to the right. 😂
