I thought it was "w00t!" not "Woot!"

It is ;-) *remembers two years ago when there was this huge discussion on how w00t! was spelled*

I purposely spelled it that way in hope that there might be a fight :-)

OK, then, if you want one :-)...ALL YOU W00T PEOPLE ARE IDIOTS!!!! IT'S SPELLED WO0T!!! (jk)

We have a winner! W00T!

As to:

Obviously w00t is short for "Woohoo".
*join the links to use them*

Uh, I just submitted "Woohoo (Hackish)" to "WOOT" then. Pending upload. *heh*

WOOT = Waste Of Our Time
Compared to just
w00t!...I like w00t!...only one SHIFT required, and it's for the "!"

What I meant is "wo0t" (with 1 zero, 1 o). :-D

wo0o0o0o0o0ot!

Hey, that was a great idea! You're a genius ;-)

No he's not!

Oh yes he is! He made this survey! So *sticks out tongue like a little kid*

Hehe... this is the best survey we've had in a really long time. :)

:-(

Aww, you made Morgan sad! (He can delete your account, you know ;-) So, I'd take that back! 120d)

Pooooor morgan. :-( *pats on head*

120d \!

"\!"...I like that...Y0U 4R3 7RU31Y 1337\!

Ooh! An escape character! I just now realized that. Man, I'm slow!

Great idea! A commented-out exclamation mark...

120d //!
120d /* ! */
120d ;!
120d '!

Heh, those comments cover all the different ways of writing comments for each language I know. Well, except for © in TI-BASIC (TI-89 family).

And, if you've been to the artofproblemsolving website, you've probably heard of LaTeX... and when you make comments in LaTeX files, you use %... but LaTeX isn't a programming language.

Oooh, and HTML is far from a programming language as well, but it has comments too:

<!-- 120d -->

And don't forget:

Z80 TI-Basic - "
BASIC - REM

Those are the only ones not mentioned that I know of...

# can be used in PHP

OOOOOOOOH, REM! Why didn't I think of that? I've always used ' instead of REM... beacuse I'm lazy.

And " isn't really a comment perse in TI-BASIC... because if it's the last thing you say in a program, then it will print it... and it affects Ans (which is why it will print it at the end)

Yeah...using " for a comment slows programs down (because it tries to execute the code, instead of skipping it like it should for a TRUE comment)

'Nother good point. That's why I never used anything like that. The only "comments" I ever put in a program (z80) were in cases like these

[code and stuff]
...
:Goto A
:THIS IS A COMMENT
:Lbl A
...
[more code]

or

[code]
...
:Stop
:COMMENTZ PWN J00

But since the older calculators have such limited memory, I never do it except when I want to remember something when coming back to work on the program. And another point... you can't do the "COMMENT            on the TI-82. And since that's the z80 calc that I use...
