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.
