What? What kind of lame email client are you using without a decent
empty-opinion detector and a route-to-Nonsense-folder rule?
Don't go, Bill. This will be fun!
For instance, how come Brian's for-loop examples are all space impaired?
The spacebar is the biggest key on the keyboard, so obvious my cat uses it,
but somehow we're still typing for-loops like we'd have to wait for our
300-baud modem to send the whitespace.
Instead of
for (i=0;i<x;i++) {
I always write
for( i=0; i < x; i++ ) {
even though I'd accept the quainter
for (i=0; i < x; i++) {
That's so much easier to read, don't you think? Makes me feel like
breathing. <breathe> Everyone except a compiler knows a space should follow
a semicolon.
Subnote: if "i" or its initializer is more than one character, space aids
clarity there, too. Thus "i=0" becomes "hours = 11".
See? What's a hundred weightless opinions on a age-old topic among friends?
