AUEBJavaMemories

Quite a few years ago, three students at the Athens University of Economics and Business were learning Java.

Their 2nd semester assignment code is shared here as a memento and a reminder of how far we can go.

... and also as a warning

• To never use your local language for comments
• To never use greeklish for naming classes and variables
• To never use the shorthand of a Greek-translated Resolution class as a variable name
• That writing a custom 200-line """parser""" and 250-line """serializer""" in your Katasthma.java class, which somehow work for a pseudo-JSON format, may seem like a total genius move at the time but after many years the cursed code involving a dozen guard variables and another dozen nested if-else cases will be still haunting your memories
• ...and also that Reflection or meta properties like foo.getClass().getName() are about as awesome as they are disgusting. And single-letter variables names are a crime.

Keep making your code better. Whatever your "code" is.
