string smashing

String smashing is a technique for solving complex structurals problem in computer science with excessive use of string concatenation. Typically results in extremely high cyclomatic complexity, unmaintanable code, and developer insanity.
Building an in application "search engine" for a relational database by having thousands of lines of PHP code that builds a massive string containing an sql query.

A simple example of string smashing would be the following line of pseudo code.

"select" + COLUMNS + "from" + TABLE_NAME + "where" + GET_CONSTRAINTS()

Super Smash Bros.

A 2-dimensional fighting game series by Nintendo, featuring iconic members of the Nintendo cast (i.e. Mario, Link, etc.) as well as guest characters from other franchises (i.e. Solid Snake, Persona 5’s Joker, Cloud Strife, etc.).

All Smash Bros games follow the same basic formula: Victory is achieved by launching the opponent out of the arena. Attack your opponent to damage them, which makes them easier to launch. Often, the game is played with 2-3 lives, although there is an option with infinite lives and a time limit, and even a “health points” mode (Stamina Battle).
