Hi,
I just realized we did it the wrong way. We first changed the coding style and
then tell you what it is supposed to look like. If someone did not read the
logs carefully they did not know what the proper style is.
This is a quick roundup of the changes that were made. A proper coding style
will be provided as of thursday.
1) General K&R style
2) Tabwidth 4 spaces, use spaces for indentation only
3) Strict braces (braces for every conditional statement) e.g.,
if( a == 2 ) {
if ( c == 1) {
return b;
} else {
return c;
}
} else {
g = 2;
}
return d;
instead of:
if (a == 2)
if( c == 1)
return b;
else
return c;
else
g = 2;
return d;
I know that omitting the braces is sometimes tempting but please consider that
also less experienced students will be working with the code.
They will appreciate the braces.
Cheers,
Tobi
