WHO CARES ABOUT CODING STANDARDS?

Have you had to read code
written by another programmer.??

Or you had to add a feature to a software
written by someone else...

When going through the code, were there things you wish
the other programmers had done
that would have made things easier for you?

Well, thats the reason for coding standards.

You probably wished, he had named his variables better.
That for once, the variable name was actually doing
what it says it's doing.

Oh, whitespace, whitespace, whitespace.
Couldn't they have applied more of those while writing.
They just had to cram every line of code together.

I know it can be nerve wrecking.

So if you dont take coding standards serious, and you wish
the others had written better code... then this is for you.

Maybe if you just decide to follow these standards,
programmers you work with will write better code too.
