Turn your C++/Java code into a Python-like format for extra style points and to make everyone hates you.
For example, Java fans would do something like this:
public class Example { private static void permute(int n, char[] a) { if (n == 0) { System.out.println(String.valueOf(a)); } else { for (int i = 0; i <= n; i++) { permute(n - 1, a); swap(a, n % 2 == 0 ? i : 0, n); } } } private static void swap(char[] a, int i, int j) { char saved = a[i]; a[i] = a[j]; a[j] = saved; } public static void main() { char[] a = "Hello world".toCharArray(); permute(5, a); } }
While Pythonify enjoyers do this:
public class Example { private static void permute(int n, char[] a) { if (n == 0) { System.out.println(String.valueOf(a)) ;} else { for (int i = 0; i <= n; i++) { permute(n - 1, a) ; swap(a, n % 2 == 0 ? i : 0, n) ;}}} private static void swap(char[] a, int i, int j) { char saved = a[i] ; a[i] = a[j] ; a[j] = saved ;} public static void main() { char[] a = "Hello world".toCharArray() ; permute(5, a) ;}}
Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/20toduc01/pythonify.git
cd pythonifyTo run Pythonify, you need Python (obviously). Windows users can download Python from the official download site. Pick any version you want.
python pythonify.py [-h] -i INPUT -o OUTPUT [-s INDENT_SIZE] [-e EOL_SPACE]
Whereas:
-
INPUT and OUTPUT are the input and output file paths.
-
INDENT_SIZE is the prefered number of indentation spaces (default to 4).
-
EOL_SPACE is the spacing between the code and semicolons and/or brackets at the end of the line (default to 1).
Working example:
python pythonify.py -i Example.java -o output.java
That would produce the code above.
The API is similar to the command line version. Just do something like:
from pythonify import pythonify pythonify('example.cpp', 'output.cpp', indent_size=4, eol_spacing=1)
For now, Pythonify treats every pair of curly braces as a code block wrapper, thus in cases where curly braces are used differently (e.g. array definitions), the code would look a bit off but not too noticeable.

I thought this was funny.

I was bored.

No one tried to stop me.
