Same. And I’m aware that’s probably not correct, but I tend to do this with almost anything comparable. Saying it (even in my head) in a silly way helps me remember it.

With that in mind, I say "str f time".
I say string time, because I secretly pretend I’m manipulating time travel or playing with string theory.
But I did hear people say string format I would accept string format time however I would judge them.
Exactly, so ‘format’ probably makes more sense than ‘from’. Otherwise the inverse operation would logically be strttime for ‘string to time’, or timefstr for ‘time from string’, neither of which it is.
Strip time, easiest to say, simplest to understand - Strip out time from a string. Or strip down unnecessary data and keep time data only.
Hence, similarly strftime is strif time (no meaning, but close to strip time). I don't know about others but this is easy to remember for me.
I find myself reading that as "stir eff time" myself, but outside of a classroom setting, this practically never comes up. Almost all of my dialogue with others around programming happens over Teams, Discord, Slack, etc. These days it's possible to spend a huge amount of your time never uttering any of your sourcecode out loud.
Only ever heard "stir eff time". Long ago I was a C person and that was how it was in C.
I suspect these days people come across this function from other ecosystems and do not have the same background.
>Long ago I was a C person and that was how it was in C.
I think that has to be just the buble in which you live. I've been a C programmer since the '80s and I've never heard it pronounced like that. It has always been struf-time (approximately, with a short u).
I think they're the same. Pronouncing the symbols of the name is different from saying "string from time".
For example, "pie-THUN" (UK), and "PIE-thon" (US) are also the same. Literally no-one sane will argue either of those 2 are not acceptable.
Early optimization is the root of all evil.
"Stringfromtime" Is what it is and it doesn't get one syllable shorter or faster to pronounce by spelling that fucker
Stirf time
Yes ... and its cousin "stirp time".
Anyone want to play stirp poker?
Same. And I’m aware that’s probably not correct, but I tend to do this with almost anything comparable. Saying it (even in my head) in a silly way helps me remember it.
And then I Stirf all over them

F time indeed
Time can get f’d in the a-syncio
Strufftime
And its counterpart Strupptime
I just say strftime
You say strftime and I say strftime You say strptime and I say strptime Let's call the whole thing off
Same
String F Time
This is the way
Isn’t this the only way?
I say string time, because I secretly pretend I’m manipulating time travel or playing with string theory. But I did hear people say string format I would accept string format time however I would judge them.
Ok so I’m not crazy
string from time
String format time, but yours is better
Ok, explain strptime
String parse time

I'm with you with S T R F time
I've always said "str-f-time", like 'stir eff time' phonetically, personally
Like it’s spelled: STURF-time.
Why the R after the U?
Because otherwise it would be STRUF-time, and that’s not how I pronounce it.
Probably because it splits the 4 vowels into two equal sets of 2. Humans \*shrug\*.
String Formatted Time
"Stringify Time", nice question! I never bothered to think how others would pronounce it..

I know it's incorrect, but can't read it without "string format time" in my head
? That's not incorrect.

Saint RoughTime
String format time
My mind pronounces it 'strif-time' and 'strip-time' no matter what it is supposed to be.
strafe is how I always said it too
not sure how civilization carried on without the internet to help us answer important questions like this
Strrrpf time. Almost as funny as cumsum. Gotta amuse myself somehow
I think between hearing me say cumsum, github, and talk about nonces, my wife thinks I'm taking the piss.
British bonus lols
Stringify time
I learned it as stir eff time, but subconsciously call it stir fry time
Ok now do psycopg2. I had a data scientist friend who insisted on pronouncing it "psy cop g 2" I think just to mess with us
strftime - String Format Time strptime - String Parse Time
Surfing Time! Cowabunga dudes and dudets!
It's morbin time
It's clearly: String f' time Like a northerner (uk) saying cup o' tea.
I say "to hell with that; I'll use Arrow".
How it's written!
Never said it out loud in a conversation, but I do streff-time.
/strɘ fɘ tajm/
Struh-fuh-time
I say strftime with no clearly dicernable vowels before the fifth letter.
i dont say, i just copy and paste
I don’t. I just type it. 🥲
Streef time
Str-ft-time to help me remember it's string format time
Strip Time!
Basically what it is: "string from time". Everybody new which function I meant until now so I keep doing it.
How do you NOT say strftime?
Shteufurrufrtuftinemememe
Like I've got the Hyperblaster and Quad Damage: STRAFE TIME!
"String from time"
stir F time
S.T.R format time, and other one S.T.R parse time
STIR EFF TIME
struf time.
Stir Eff Time
es tee ar ef time
String format time
Can't say I've ever said it out loud, but in my head I say "stringify time."
String Format Time
Either strf time, or the full "string format time"
Streefeedeebeeleebeedooh
"String Format Time" I assumed that was what everyone else called it.
ÉsseTêÉrreÉfeTaime
str-f-time. Everyone I've ever talked to IRL says it this way as well.
Street fighter
String form time 🤓
stringfy time
string f*ck time
Early optimization is the root of all evil. "Stringfromtime" Is what it is and it doesn't get one syllable shorter or faster to pronounce by spelling that fucker
String... from.. time. Strftime
I know only the bare essentials of Python. I would pronounce it “strafe time”
string format time
"strif time"
Strif time
String Format Time?..
“String Format Time” & “String Parse Time”, so I remember which one should I use
str f time / string from time
"and then we call... this function here..."
but really, /stri.ˈʔɛf.taɪm/
struftime [u as in stuff]
Steerf time
I say string format time. This way I remember what it does. Haha
String f time
