hehe, that's interesting, but why not making it a broad section, like " From XX language to PHP Translation?

'Cause it is not a permanent fixture

British sarcasm at its finest!

tony · 06-27-2009, 08:24 PM

Normo · 06-27-2009, 08:37 PM

I have this Python script, make it PHP!

Python Code:

class Hello:
  @staticmethod
  def world():
    print "Hello World!"

Hello.world()

        }
    }
}

$welcome = new Hello\World;
$welcome();

done with our beloved namespace separator! :)

Actually this would make more sense:

PHP Code:


			
class Hello
{
    static function world()
    {
        echo 'Hello World!';
    }
}

Hello::world();

Great forum! :)

Jim · 06-29-2009, 08:21 AM

ETbyrne is right, but Kalle's code looks more impressive :P

Salathe · 06-29-2009, 08:51 AM

Wrong! The correct translation is of course:

PHP Code:


			
<?php



define('Hello', 'Hello World!');

function world(){ echo Hello; }



Hello.world();



?>

ETbyrne · 06-29-2009, 01:03 PM

That's nothing like the Python code at all. Pretty cool trick though!

Trust Salathe to come up with something crazy!

I guess the sarcasm was lost on you. Please don't take anything in this thread/sub-forum as serious (Except this reply?)

I was going to go with const Hello = … instead of the define('Hello'… which would work (as of PHP 5.3) thanks to the namespace support but figured that it would be a little too crazy for today.

tony · 06-29-2009, 02:06 PM

Salathe, that snippet blows my mind. how does it work? is if using concatenation? WOW :O

haha, indeed it would, I've not had my lunchtime coffee yet!

To be REALLY sarcastic you really should post it without wrapping it in PHP code tags, with some strange indentation to boot!
define('Hello', 'Hello World!');
function world() {
echo Hello;
}Hello.world();

But that would be too cruel!

Wildhoney · 06-29-2009, 02:55 PM

Haha. You're cruel, you're cruel. But I like it very much
