Stupid people at their finest

Here's a conversation I spotted on another (clearly far less competent) C++ forum.
First Guy:
// operating with variables
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
// declaring variables:
int a, b;
int result;
// process:
a = 5;
b = 2;
a = a + 1;
result = a - b;
// print out the result:
cout << result;
// terminate the program:
return 0;
}
There you learned c++.
Second Guy:
I lol'd when I saw this maybe give something a little more difficult then a level 1 program to think your a hot shot. Btw your coding method is horrible let me make it prettier for you
.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void main ()
{
int a = 6; // Variable 'a' is declared and equal to 6
int b = 2; // Variable 'b' is declared and equal to 2
int result; // Variable "result" is declared
result = a - b; // Process
cout << result; // Output the result. Should be 4
system ( " pause " ); // Pauses the program when it finishes
}

Is it main being void and not returning anything not an integer...
I haven't used C++ in a while (gotta freshen up)

I like the fact that the guy thinks he's great because he initialised his variables straight away and commented EVERY line of code.
Also, I never spotted the 'void main' , but that's because I didn't think anyone was stupid enough to do that
also, you're haven't even made a dent into C, never mind C++ with that code, I bet they would probably wet themselves if they saw a typical SDL application!
*the pointers would fry their brains and the references would make them cry*

It still seems as if everybody (aside from Falco of course) has skipped right over what actually made this funny:
Code: Select all
system ( " pause " ); // Pauses the program when it finishes
If you STILL don't understand this article is a must read:
C++ - system("pause")

If only for the sake of argument, he's laughing at the fact that it isn't funny.

But that's just it.. it IS funny. Or at least it was.. now it has just been turned into a debate like everything else recently. Why can't people just say "Ha." or leave it alone? (Rhetorical question.. not asking for further debate).
