These coding guidelines might be a good idea overall but they do not seem very specific to C++. You could take the same guidelines and apply them to C, Ada, Obj-C, Pascal, etc. If you look for C++ specific guidelines I suggest this: https://github.com/isocpp/CppCoreGuidelines/blob/master/CppCoreGuidelines.md https://github.com/isocpp/CppCoreGuidelines/blob/master/CppC... I am saying this since C++ gives you a lot of power, but also a lot of responsibility and room for error making a more specific guide a very desirable thing. Then, you don't use INT_MAX anymore, you use std::numeric_limits<int>::max()
