Below is a funny song about coding which is sung to the tune of “Favorite Things”. It’s been around for ages, although I always thought the original version was a bit too short and unfocused. So, I’ve re-written it, because I’m a dork, and I’m posting it because I have nothing worthwhile to say today.
Pointers to pointers to printf()-like functions,
Unary minus and nested conjunctions,
Integers, booleans, characters, strings,
These are a few of my favorite things!Encapsuled functions with routines embeded.
Parallel process to run multi-threaded.
Routines that lighten the processor load.
This is just some of my favorite code!
/* When the bug bites! When the core dumps!
when the code is bad.
I simply remember my favorite things,
and then I don't feel so mad. */
API reference and good indentation.
Pointers to strings that have null-termination.
Callbacks to functions of referencing strings.
These are a few of my favorite things.malloc() and calloc() and database files.
Error-free coding that always compiles.
Arrays of structures and quick file sort.
These are my favorite things to import!
/* When the link fails! When the code bombs!
When it won't execute.
I simply compile my favorite things
and then I can go Re-boot! */

I really thought one thing, but then something else. There's a bunch more to it, but you'll have to read the article.

Hah! That’s brilliant!
now, if you could write it so it actually compiled… :)
Get it to compile! Wow. If I could do that I’d be a shoe-in at the The International Obfuscated C Code Contest . It’s an incomprehensible program AND a catchy song!
hah. the weird hting is, normally I can’t fit new lyrics to an old song. This one I could. It’s scary.
Ha! I love this.
dude! amazing!
Now all we need is someone to sing this. I immediately thought of JoCo for that.
Fucking. Epic. Dude.
Awesome, I’m bookmarking this.
