Source Formatting
After spending way too many years working as a consultant software engineer I have come to the conclusion that the single most important thing that you can do with your source code is to make it readable.
PERIOD!
This is far more important than any of the following...
- Making it small.
- Making it fast.
- Making it look cool.
- Making it work.
Wait a sec... Did you just say that making source code readable is more important than making the code work?
Yup! thats exactly what I said!
