Showing My Friend My Foolproof Parse Int Method

Showing My Friend My Foolproof Parse Int Method
The eternal struggle between doing things right and doing things that work. Instead of using parseInt() or Number() like a civilized developer, this mad genius is just removing the quotation marks with replaceAll() to convert a string to a number. It's the coding equivalent of using a hammer to screw in a lightbulb - horrifying yet somehow it works. The face on the left is every senior dev witnessing this crime against programming humanity, while the face on the right is the junior who's just proud they "solved" the problem without reading the docs.

Oh the beautiful abomination of mixing Python with C++ syntax! This code is the programming equivalent of putting pineapple on pizza AND dipping it in chocolate sauce. The madlad imported iostream in Python and then used C++'s cout << syntax inside a Python function. The most cursed part? It actually works! The terminal shows the output "Hello" because Python's flexible import system let this crime against nature run successfully. This is what happens when you know too many languages and decide to play god with syntax. Your code reviewer is probably having a seizure right now.

Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should . This code is the programming equivalent of naming your twins "Twin1" and "Twin2" then wondering why they need therapy. Using keywords as variable names, declaring const const , setting 5 = 4 , and claiming 2 + 2 === 5 is true? This isn't just cursed code—it's the kind of abomination that makes senior devs wake up in cold sweats. Future maintainers will hunt you down. Not to ask questions, but for revenge.
