In my second year,
I told my teacher I can code in in C#(c-sharp).

She replied : C-sharp ? Oh you mean C-hash !

*that day I lost hope in college*

To be fair, more people are going to know what a hash sign is than a sharp symbol. And it is usually typed with a hash rather than a sharp.

@projektaquarius Bt does anyone call C-sharp C-hash?
Can person who teaches Engineering allowed to do that ? lel

@neelgeek you would be surprised. I mean, maybe she never used it or heard it said. Stranger things have happened.

C-Marijuana? Doesn't make much sense to me...

@projektaquarius ya maybe.
Bt you don't expect a reply from a teacher who is teaching you the subject of object-oriented programming maybe :P

@neelgeek look at it this way: she could be trying to teach you OOP in C++. That would be a humongous pain in the ass.

@projektaquarius Lol.
She was teaching it us in Java.

One of my colleagues calls it c-hashtag

I mean even Wikipedia writes C# instead of C♯ so I don't know why the sharp

@ipodmanmike RIP 😂😂

@omgashnames well the original concept was that it was supposed to be more C-like than C++. So rather than C+1 it was supposed to be C+0.5. At least that is what Wikipedia says.

Also, C++++ would look and sound dumb.

She probably pronounces SQL as, "sequel."

@bahua
Except that's how it's supposed to be pronounced... From Wikipedia "SQL (/ˌɛs.kjuːˈɛl/ ESS-kew-EL or /ˈsiːkwəl/ SEE-kwəl . . . )"

@RiderExMachina

It is a generally accepted pronunciation, but there is a rift between the two pronunciations, and it generally falls between Microsoft people and not.

But the # is an octothorpe.

I've been calling the language Coctothorpe all these years.

want to learn C cross cross?

@xalez you mean C sum sum?

It's C++++
which is pronounced as "C plus sum add cross"

Should i put a tag after the hash?

I just died a little inside

Oh you mean microsofts java? @neelgeek

I will fill a dropout form for this.

Put it in your CV and send it to Microsoft.
You will get hired instantly :D

Same thing happened to me but she said HashTag xD

@projektaquarius which is why they should call it C4+ which would be da bomb. Or C(+*4) spelled C plutifour.

... I drank too much today... I am dizzy...

@cyberlord64 I am jealous, but also a music geek so I like the C sharp but am moderately irritated that they write it C#, but the sharp symbol doesn't appear on my phone so I must suffer in silence.

It's c-pound sign. Everyone know that

You should lose hope in -your- college. Not colleges entirely.

In my country such a thing would never happen. Every professor is someone who decided to quit the industry and teach after having quite a few years of experience.

At least she didn’t say fucking “hashtag”...

You have no idea how many times users have come to me “oh it’s ID hashtag-123456” fuck all the way off!

Pound, hash, fine... hashtag... a hashtag is the combined hash character and the tag. Fucking makes me feel old.

C-Hashtag... No.

Also yeah, since pretty much every tutorial and book will say “C# (c-sharp)” at least once, you know the teacher doesn’t know much of the language.

I bet she’s one of those jaaaava devs.

Or phu-pee developers.

You should tell her you have experience with asp (like clasp) muhvuc.

yeaaaaa, we on the goood hash, on the C one! =D

Let's get this guy a devrant ball
