minus-squarerichieadler@lemmy.myserv.onelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·2 年前What happens in other languages you use when you try to access a non-existing key for a hash/map/dict? What language do you use that accessing an object attribute is the same that accessing a dict key? What knowledge do you have (or not) that KeyError is a mistery to you?
minus-squareHallainzil@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 年前 What language do you use that accessing an object attribute is the same that accessing a dict key? Javascript / Typescript.
minus-squarerichieadler@lemmy.myserv.onelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 年前Well, yeah, I thought about later. Lua does the same. The other questions are still valid, though.
minus-squarecocobean@bookwormstory.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 年前Return undefined. Typescript. Why error? Just return undefined. Simple, no try/catch needed.
minus-squarerichieadler@lemmy.myserv.onelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 年前Because that’s prone to errors. And the Zen of Python includes “explicit is better than implicit” and “Errors should never pass silently”. Languages that do otherwise create bad habits.
