A lot of programming is repetitive. It would be great if we could make some advances. On iOS, for example, Apple will generate a lot of code for you if, say, you want to create a uitableview. I could easily imagine we could tell it a few things and the entire method could be generated. If we look at duplicate code across all projects on the Internet, maybe can simply pull from a larger database. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/191614/how-to-detect-code... Anyway, it's easy to say that it can't be done. It's probably more worthwhile to try and tackle the problem and make some forward progress. [Update] Just saw this HN submission. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8562635 Microsoft can now autocomplete C# code by using Bing Code Search Engine based off of your comments. ///how to read file pth line by line<TAB> Pretty slick. |
