The only thing I like about static typing over dynamic typing is that you can have two functions by the same name with different type signatures, whereas in Python, to do that, I'd have to do f(*_) and then check the types to change the behavior.
Also Swift's Optional types are a pain to use... Let's start with the basics: if you want to declare an optional type variable, you must explicitly state it is optional, and it stays that way during the program's execution, no coming back. Then, if you want to unwrap it, one's often tempted to use ! which force unwraps an object. If it is nil, Swift crashes. If it is not nil, you're good, but the compiler trows warnings :-/.
If you want to soft unwrap it, you have to use ?? or ? which are also terrific, as you can never be sure they're going to succeed either.
@EriktheOutgolfer Anyway, most of the time overloads aren't needed. In most cases all the types you function should accept extend/implement the same base.
LaTeX truth tables

Its inputs should be labeled as lowercase letters a-z, its output should be labeled as y.

@drobilc oh and you can post as a link [posted in Sandbox](https://codegolf.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/2140/sandbox-for-proposed-challenges/{ID})
@SocraticPhoenix I meant that, if you release a product, regardless of how good it is according to statistics, practically you will never have a 100% liker audience, the same goes for oracle and java
@Mr.Xcoder exactly, nobody has managed to make a perfect language yet, as far as I'm aware...and even SOGL (which is only used by dzaima afaict) often gets complained to, by dzaima himself
CMP: Would people be interested in seeing a Smokey-like bot that looks for off-topic, poorly written, or dupe PPCG questions and answers? Not spam; there's already Smokey for that, but things that shouldn't belong here.
@EriktheOutgolfer I think this has been the community's most surprisingly-trivial thing that PowerShell has done, but this is my highest up-voted answer.
@Pavel I don't remember. I think it was something about how PowerShell does roundtrip calculations for floats.
@cairdcoinheringaahing oh yeah that's a good point. I thought most people went out past 8 though, but then again it could be different from small children
@AdmBorkBork so it's trivial to wrap something into an array and it's implicit to newline-separate a list before output? for powershell, I'd say that's nice
I think one of the most frustrating things with PowerShell is that every string is UTF-16 internally, and most of the input/output processing is UTF-16 by default.
The sizes are optimized in arrays because the sizes of array slots aren't explicitly defined, but on the stack and in the local variable tables, every word is 32 bits
For anything not involving matrix transforms or other chained-commands 05AB1E usually parallells jelly.
But anything that does complex cartesian products and transposes... Jelly kills 05AB1E. Also, matrix diagonals stop 05AB1E dead in its track, Jelly loves them.

I remember being super angry at a file I was trying to split on newlines with \r\n when the newlines were just \n. I felt SUPER dumb after that excursion.
NPP also has also shift+alt+arrowKeys to select the square and ctrl+c to place a cursor (I think that was an option though). I'd really like a good text editor that supports multi-cursor stuff well, as NPPs fails on arrow keys or almost anything that's not a character or deleting
@mınxomaτ Ugggh, but with packed fields, if the COBOL flat file has a packed field before a newline, the packed field is harder to parse, that was the problem we had that took AGES to figure out. We had a packed field (compressed binary data) and a null-byte delimiter. When we were parsing, the null-byte delimiter was consumed in the packed-field, making the decryption offset EVERYTHING by 1 byte :(
I mean it's fine, just was confusing to have a bit delimiter in an (majority) ASCII flatfile.
@dzaima At the danger of repeating myself, that's a feature of the underlying editor control (Scintilla), not NPP itself. Meaning all other Scintilla based editors can do the same (SciTe, Geany et al)
@dzaima I love not having homework... When you get into the real world as a CS&E major... You will have this realization that PPCG probably prepared you for real life 10x more than college though >_>. Y'all smarter than half the kids I shared groups with (aged 22-25, Ohio State University, 2013)
@Christopher2EZ4RTZ I be am from south when are were am young, sue thee me?
@Christopher2EZ4RTZ Y'all in southern america is either "You are all" or "You all" which is why many people in the south are laughed at for using y'all. Annnnd contributes to the English language being crap lol.
@Christopher2EZ4RTZ ME TOO LOL. I actually read the whole thing too, because the question is from a dude in switzerland. Interesting to know that the Swiss now have the same problems with relationships as the USA.
According to Wikipedia, y’all’dn’t’ve is a valid contraction.
I am having difficulty pronouncing the L-D-N-T-V consonant cluster, especially since there is no vowel at the end (silent E). Y’all’dn’t’ve any advice or audio samples would you?
My Calc teacher said if we get a 60 or up on our test then we can work together for corrections. If below that you can't. I got a 58 and so did my friend :| (corrects to a 85ish and with 1 point GPA boost is basically a 95)
