java - Should you create variables for a if statement? -


i wondering, technically efficient way.

what smarter code with:

    if (args[0].tolowercase().tostring().equals("server")) {         system.out.println("server");     }

or:

    string host = args[0].tolowercase();      if (host.equals("server")) {         system.out.println("server");     }

keep in mind, know variable redundant. , argument can contain number, not case of question. it's example.

when should create variable if statement? always? safer? should not, because wasting memory? impact performance @ all?

by means, create variable. single variable never, ever performance bottleneck, never.

always favor readability. performance problems appear in specifics parts of system. when arise, , not before measuring (aka having numbers), treat them case case. never forget: premature optimization root of evil.

in specific case, go further , create variable, explaining intent of comparison:

string host = args[0].tolowercase(); boolean isrunningunderproduction = host.equals("server"); if (isrunningunderproduction) {     system.out.println("server"); }

much better comment. , explains intent of code within glimpse.

a quote martin fowler's refactoring book:

the interesting thing performance if analyze programs, find waste of time in a small fraction of code. if optimize code equally, end 90 percent of optimizations wasted, because optimizing code isn't run much. time spent making program fast, time lost because of lack of clarity, wasted time.

in other words: if programs easier read, easier fix slow parts, when time comes (if comes).

c++ - Difference between pre and post decrement in recursive function argument -

i have following sample code used pre-decrement void function(int c) { if(c == 0) { return; } else { cout << "dp" << c << endl; function(--c); cout << c << endl; return; } } this function give output input 4 : dp3 dp2 dp1 dp0 0 1 2 3 but when use post decrement void function(int c) { if(c == 0) { return; } else { cout << "dp" << c << endl; function(c--); cout << c << endl; return; } } output goes in infinite loop dp4 can explain me in detail why happens ? this happens because function(c--) called same value of c , when finishes c decremented. recursively called, hence called same value no chance of return , hit stack overflow error. assume this, int x = 1, y = 0; y = x++ result y == 1 , x == 2. if y = ++x , bot x , y 2.
