| May 24, 2017 at 6:40 | comment | added | Laiv | Just dumping code with no explanation is like encouraging the copy-past-and-go. I don't see how that could be useful in SoftwareEngineering. Maybe at StackOverflow is, but both sites actually have totally different purposes. | |

| May 1, 2017 at 10:51 | comment | added | Andranik Sargsyan | This site is EXCHANGE, so we try to help each other as much has we can. Maybe I should do such comments in StackOverflow, but I tried to help with my approach. If someone still needs an explanation, he will ask for it. I do here a standard mathematical addition digit by digit, starting from the end. | |
| Apr 30, 2017 at 6:40 | comment | added | gnat | This site is about conceptual questions and answers are expected to explain things. Throwing code dumps instead of explanation is like copying code from IDE to whiteboard: it may look familiar and even sometimes be understandable, but it feels weird... just weird. Whiteboard doesn't have compiler | |
