Definitions by Con2Cool

A piece of code (particularly in python) that is unnecessarily complex or confusing and may have small or large bugs. Darcode can be recognized by a use of confusing variable names, redundant lines of code, a lack of regard for coding conventions of any kind, and excessive use of unnecessary (list) comprehensions and lambda functions.
Darcode examples:
"for c in line:

try:

if c in chars:

pass

if c not in chars:

second.write(c)
except:

pass"

"month_sum = int(initial_month) + int(m)

subtract = lambda month_sum: ( abs(month_sum - 12x), new:= x if month_sum > 12 else month_sum, new:= x - 1 for x in range(month_sum) if ((abs(month_sum - 12x) <= 12 and (x != 0))) )"
