Coding Conventions (Entry Nr. 92, by user 1 | edit) |
|
|
|
Short Blocks |
All blocks of code (In PHP, C++ etc: everything between { and }) should be shorter then 40 lines of code. This applies to main-functions, general functions, loops and if conditions. Only exception: Classes. |
|
|
Use Classes |
When several functions share data, use a class to encapsulate it all. At the beginninig of the class, declare and initialize all variables. |
|
|
Understandable Names |
Classes, functions and variables should have names that everyone can understand. Long names are alright. |
|
|
No strange nestings |
Dont make complicated code by nesting function calls. (Look at the example inside this entry) |
|
|
An understandable UI |
People should understand every detail of the UI in every situation. The UI should do what the user expects it to do. |
|

Testing |
