Coding Best Practices or Principles Explained:
- Coding best practices, or coding principles, are guidelines that help developers write clean, efficient, and maintainable code.
- By following these practices, developers can improve the readability, performance, and overall quality of their code.
- It's important to adapt these principles based on the specific programming language, framework, or project requirements.
- Some common coding best practices include
- Keeping code simple and readable
- Avoiding code duplication
- Writing modular and loosely coupled code.
- Using meaningful comments.
- Writing self-explanatory code.
- Following coding style and conventions.
- Testing code, handling errors and exceptions gracefully.
- Optimizing for performance.
- Using version control.
- Regularly refactoring and cleaning up code.
"Any fool can write code that a computer can understand. Good programmers write code that humans can understand." - Martin Fowler
