Half of the team favored four-space indentation; the other half favored two-space indentation.

As you can guess, the coding standard mandated three, so as to "offend all equally".

post z r/lolphp:

0x0 wat by Altreus (self.lolphp)
>>> 0x0 +2
4
>>> 0x0 +3.5
6.5
>>> 0x0 +2e1
757
:|

Here is an explanation I was provided with:
<mauke> once their lexer detects "0x", it skips all '0's, then calls strtol()
<mauke> so: tokptr = "0x0 +2;", toklen = 3
<mauke> skip 0x: tokptr = "0 +2;", toklen = 1
<mauke> skip all '0's: tokptr = " +2;", toklen = 0
<mauke> call strtol(" +2", NULL, 16) ==> 2
<mauke> then it proceeds to parse the remaining program starting from " +2;"
because that's where the previous token ends
<mauke> and this is how 0x0 ends up having the value 2
<mauke> 0x0 +2e1 ends up being 757 because the first pass interprets 2e1 as a hex integer
while the second pass thinks it's a floating point number
<mauke> so it's really 0x2e1 + 2.0e1

<obecalp> How do you do generic programming in Haskell?
<ShreevatsaR> This is a joke, right? This is like asking how you can have precise control over everything in assembly :P

I almost always leave with the impression that the designers did the “right thing.” I suppose this is in contrast to Java, which does the pedantic thing, Perl, which does the kludgy thing, Ruby, which has two independent implementations of the wrong thing, and C, which doesn't do anything.
