After reading a lot of comments in this thread, I’m not sure I know what spaghetti code is. I thought spaghetti code was when the order of execution was obfuscated due to excessive jumps and GOTOs. But a lot of people are citing languages without those as examples of spaghetti code. Is this just a classic “I don’t like this programming language, and I don’t know much about it.” Or is there something I’m missing?
It’s more incredibly tangled and highly coupled code. It’s the kinda code where you can’t change anything because it causes a catastrophic cascade of issues. Basically where software engineers throw design out the window and just starting coding random bullshit that “works”

Spaghetti is all messy and tangled up; spaghetti code is the same.
That’s one way to make your code messy and thus achieve spaghetti code.
In general, when some code is very poorly written, it becomes spaghetti code.

tbh nor am i, this is becoming vim vs emacs 2.0 isnt it
