Dear javascript, if your array is treated like an arraylist THEN CALL IT A FUCKING ARRAYLIST

Sincerely, a java developer

For me an arraylist is an array with linked list algo, that's the same in java?

@RazorSh4rk no

Wtf arraylist means anyway? I am sorry but the guy that came up with that name was a Goddamned piece of shit as a developer. DynamicArray would have been clear about the intent, arraylist to me is a (linked) list behaving like an array.

@QCat by the way why don't Java name things like aaaallll the others duh

@Celes yeah, its an infinite (haha) array with a fix order

@QCat because java naming makes sense and is actually consistent duh.

@RazorSh4rk a fix order? That's just like C++ vector?

Why do developers that know more than one language have to mix stuff.?.
Javascript is what it is. Java is what it is. Php the same.

Want something perfect? build one yourselfs

@Celes ill be honest with you, i got no idea how c++ works

@searchindex perfection is not something which has for goal to be achieved (not sure if the sentence make sense sorry xd). The community and the evolution is the most important part of a language. C++ <3

@RazorSh4rk seems lile an array list is a list backed by an array, like I just wrote in my lib. Seems like java vector is deprecated, weird :o well I learn something ^^

@RazorSh4rk it is one of the main critics of Java that it is neither consistent nor logical. Coding in Java without an IDE with autocompletion is said to be almost impossible because of that

You do know that Java is the ONLY language that calls it dynamically sized container an ArrayList?

90% of all other languages call it 'array'

Just loves a great cat fight over naming in programming langs 😂🔥

@QCat ArrayList is just a resizing array. No linked lists. Nothing dynamic.

@ravik you know dynamic container means resizable right 😐

@Krokoklemme or a list sometimes (I think of you idiot c# and Lisp)

@QCat I'd ++ you all the way to int32 overflow if I could, 100% agreement

Java w/out IDE is impossible

Literally its just your shit Java that calls it that. They are arrays in basicly all other languages

Sincerely

@nicholai "array" traditionally has a fix size hmm?

@RazorSh4rk true for C/C++/C#/Java, but not for majority of other languages, especially scripting ones
