Programming code that is written so poorly that it could only have been written by someone after that
person drank an entire bottle of
vodka. It runs without error, however, it may be overly inefficient,
useless, or a re-implementation of a function that already exists as part of the programming language.
VBScript example written in VodkaScript:
Function CleanQuotes(InputString)
Dim OutputString
Dim Position
For Position = 1 to Len(InputString)
If Mid(InputString, Position, 1) = "'" Then
OutputString = OutputString & "''"
Else
OutputString = OutputString & Mid(InputString, Position, 1)
End If
Next
CleanQuotes = OutputString
End Function
----------------
VBScript sample written correctly using built-in function:
Dim strVariable ' contains some unwanted
character
strVariable = Replace(strVariable, "(unwanted character)", "(replacement character(s))")
Where (unwanted character) is any character(s). i.e. '",@!$ (in the
case of a double-quote, use
two double-quotes)
----------------
The
way that the VodkaScript sample above should have been written, for efficiency and re-use, is:
Function CleanQuotes(InputString)
CleanQuotes = Replace(InputString, "'", "''")
End Function
