For Fuck's sake never name your variables $a $b or $c. What the fuck I thought that's like the first thing they teach in whichever bush you learnt how to code at!!!!!!

for($ihadtonamethisalittlelongerbecausejustusingtheletteriisnotlongenough = 0; $ihadtonamethisalittlelongerbecausejustusingtheletteriisnotlongenough < 10; $ihadtonamethisalittlelongerbecausejustusingtheletteriisnotlongenough++){}

😜

@linuxxx I would rather you do that. When reading code I keep a mental note of what is happening and if I have to do substitution, while still trying to figure out why you didn't use an inbuilt function, is just too much for me

Someone from my project created a table named someTable. Wahaha

Invective! Verb your adjective nouns!

@tobbr depends what $x is. If it's an object with methods as explicites as the var name AND you use it in a 50 lines loop... Yes use an explicite name!

@tobbr it was a count of items returned by a db query

I just had to code the equations for guessing a triangle height based on its sides, and I named them: a, b and c. Not sideA nor triangleSideA, etc., no: a, b, c!

I agree! $x, $y, $z for the win!

Are you sure you are not reading some minified and obfuscated code? That might be done on purpose so other people can't steal your code.
