I'm a Python novice and even *I* know that's shit. First thing I thought was why not use a for loop.
-
Root772317ySo a lengthy single-purpose switch inside a loop is okay, but a tiny nested loop is shitty?
Why?
... Though actually, why use a block at all?
for($item in $items) {
echo str_repeat($star, $item->stars);
// whatever else
} -
Root772317y@Bitwise Both the loop and conditional are pointless if you know $object->stars is withun (0..5). Just repeat the markup $stars times and echo it. That likewise handles not displaying anything when the count is zero.
Unless I'm misunderstanding you? -
Sometimes I ask myself if I am doing something wrong when I am just using loops etc. for making stacked tags.
It seems like you don't do that.
