      The best part is the dependency on the function is_odd.

        Which itself has a dependency of the function is_number.

      If I was a JS programmer, I’d just write a bash script to download it every week for fun.

      300,000 every week… is this really a feature not built into Java Script?

          (+x) % 2 == 0
          

          If you forget for a second it’s Javascript, the language will turn back and bite you.

              This evaluates to NaN for some reason:

              '10' % 0
              

              Since JS doesn’t really differentiate strings from numbers, except on the places it does, it makes sense to make sure you are working with numbers.

              JS is a language where [1,2,11].sort() returns [1,11,2].

              And if you use a variable instead of a bare array, half the functions are side-effectful, as determined by coin toss.

              And if you try declaring that variable with new Array(3).map() then it will ignore all 3 indices, because undefined is real enough to be enumerated, but not real enough to be iterated, because, and I cannot overstress the importance of this principle in Javascript, go fuck yourself. Go fuck yourself is why.

                Array(3) doesn’t create [undefined, undefined, undefined, ]; it creates [/* hole */, /* hole */, /* hole */, ]. The holes don’t set any property on the array whatsoever, so they are skipped when iterating. How this makes sense, I can’t tell you.

                  Yet the array contains exactly three nothings.

                  It’s like a zen koan.

                typeof(null) == ‘object’

                Because some people think planning an entirely new language should take less than 2 weeks. 10 days, in this case.

                See wat for more.
