I think the answer is still "Who cares?  Whatever you want."   :shock:

I hate it when some IDEs bury the fracking tab features
I just hate IDEs

I want you to use white space, tab-indent your code 4 spaces, camelize your variable names, provide pre-conditions and post conditions for your functions and comment explicitly enough so that it actually describes what code is supposed to be doing as well as log any edits that you make to the code...

...then your ass better do it.
Hence the use of the past tense in relation to your job of managing the work of others.

Coders are artists; you can't manage them like blue-collar workers.

First off, I am a coder, and an artist by education and profession.

Second, you have no fucking clue as to why I decided to no longer keep employees for MY business.  (hint: had a lot to do with payroll taxes and regulations, than with my ability to manage.)

(EDIT: you also have no idea if the case I gave was the one I used for my business.... which it wasn't, so you might want to consider it a hypothetical situation before you pass judgment, Mr. Coder as Artist)


...Might want to consider what you say before you open your god damn mouth.

(2nd Edit:  and yes, I've had a bit to drink tonight, so I'm probably a bit more irritated at this post than I normally would be when sober.)

Neither of these address the issue of extra spaces after open parens and before closing parens.

It does as part of its format style, so read it again *smacks thee with a stack of Mad Magazines*

I just say use them when your eyes are tired, but really one shouldn't code when one's tired, it makes for sloppy code or bad implementation.

Hey, d.... little inebriated right now, so I wouldn't think too highly of this "victory" of yours (got back from one of them crazy Japanese drinking parties, an enkai, about an hour and a half ago).  Try it on me again in about 9-10 hours. ;)





(edit: trying to fix some drunken typos... let's see if I can do it without fucking up.)

Where?

From the wiki article about Programming Style.
Quote
Spacing

Free-format languages often completely ignore whitespace. Making good use of spacing in code layout is therefore considered good programming style.

Compare the following examples of C code.

 int count;
 for(count=0;count<10;count++)
 {
   printf("%d",count*count+count);
 }

with

 int count;
 for (count = 0; count < 10; count++)
 {
   printf("%d", count * count + count);
 }

In the C-family languages, it is also recommended to avoid using tab characters in the middle of a line as different text editors render their width differently.
