I’ve actually seen this type of code produced by a human-being who was trying to write good code. It was one of the students in my introduction to programming class in university, we had to write a function that squared a number or something, and he had written hundreds of lines of if-statements. Sometimes you just use what you know to complete an assignment I guess 🤷

Though I want to add this case for interview questions: “Write code that outputs every prime number smaller than 10.”

And if the candidate doesn’t do ‘print “2,3,5,7”;’, I will deduct points.
