He estado programando durante más de 9 años, y de acuerdo con el consejo de mi primer maestro de programación, siempre mantengo mi main()
función extremadamente corta.
Al principio no tenía idea de por qué. Simplemente obedecí sin entender, para deleite de mis profesores.
Después de ganar experiencia, me di cuenta de que si diseñaba mi código correctamente, main()
simplemente tenía una función corta . Escribir código modular y siguiendo el principio de la responsabilidad individual permitió que mi código que se ha diseñado en "racimos", y main()
sirvió como nada más que un catalizador para obtener el programa en ejecución.
Un avance rápido hasta hace unas semanas, estaba mirando el código fuente de Python, y encontré la main()
función:
/* Minimal main program -- everything is loaded from the library */
...
int
main(int argc, char **argv)
{
...
return Py_Main(argc, argv);
}
Yay pitón. main()
Función corta == Buen código.
Los maestros de programación tenían razón.
Queriendo mirar más profundo, eché un vistazo a Py_Main. En su totalidad, se define de la siguiente manera:

Buen Dios Todopoderoso ... es lo suficientemente grande como para hundir el Titanic.
Parece que Python hizo el truco "Introducción a la programación 101" y simplemente movió todo main()
el código a una función diferente llamada algo muy similar a "main".
Aquí está mi pregunta: ¿está este código terriblemente escrito, o hay otras razones para tener una función principal corta?
Tal como está ahora, no veo absolutamente ninguna diferencia entre hacer esto y simplemente mover el código Py_Main()
nuevamente main()
. ¿Me equivoco al pensar esto?
options = ParseOptionFlags(argc,argv)
donde options
es una struct
que contiene las variables Py_BytesWarningFlag
, Py_DebugFlag
etc ...
