Like putting a random int in an enum field (enumField = (myEnum)1000), I didn’t knew you could do that…
minus-squaredipdowel@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·15 hours agoYeah, I also find it super helpful with unit tests, saves a lot of time.

I cut the size of a function in half once using a suggested recursive loop and it blew my mind. Feels like having a peer to do a code review on hand at all times.
