How do you code?

Choice 1:


if (condition)
{
//do stuff
}

Choice 2:


if (condition){
//do stuff
}


Edit:
And why?

[ShowerThoughts]

I code C# it's similar I took option 1

[Runescapian321]

Option 1. It's easier to read that way IMO, even if it does take up extra space.

What he said an also because Visual Studio automatically formats it to that :D

I do option #2 because it looks better than option #1. I've never had problems with indenting, really, so that works for me.

[Yakman]

they have names,
option1 and option2 are called Allman and K&R style respectively. (I'm fairly sure i got the right ones....)

i like K&R, simply because thats how i learnt it


i get my inspiration from this quote from a book


The position of braces is less important, although people hold passionate beliefs. We have chosen one of several popular styles. Pick a style that suits you, then use it consistently.

I used to use Allman religiously, but I have recently switched back to K&R because it's better to code officially in my opinion. Except in SCAR lol :p. I don't follow many scar standards any more :p

[Tniffoc]

For me, it depends on the language. Op #1 for C/C++ and Op #2 for Java! :D

[Wrycu]

Cool. I keep seeing scripts that use option 2, and I find it really annoying.

[Negaal]

1#, and this thread is stupid.

[TravisV10]

I use option 2 b/c that is what is usually used with other languages I use. Plus it is easier to read because you don't make a ton of extra lines.

2 seems to be the logical way to write code.

[Freddy1990]

if (condition) {
//do stuff
}

[BlackThursday]

Option 1. It's how I learned to code PHP and since that's embedded in my brain now, thats probably how I'll code forever.

[R0b0t1]

I make one line programs.

You forgot


if (condition) { stuff(); }

I am all for Allman though :)

[Smartzkid]

K&R all the way

[Enchanted]

I personally do option 2.


#include <iostream>

int main() {
bool enchantedRules = true;

if(enchantedRules) {
std::cout << "Enchanted rules!";
}

else {
std::cout << "Enchanted does not rule!";
}

for(;;) std::cin.get();

return 0;
}

You forgot


if (condition) { stuff(); }



I wasn't aware of it, but I didn't forget it! See the "other" choice in the poll?

This thread is not stupid. It's got a purpose, and it's informative. Please keep your negative thoughts to yourself, or the flaming section.
