- bigfudge 16y agoAt the risk of sounding humourless, this a joke right?
- user24 16y agoLol, yeah only kidding - I don't write minified code. No, I just skip that layer entirely and type pure gzipped data. edit: but seriously, yeah I use tonnes of whitespace and bucketloads of comments. No point making things harder than they need to be. Also commenting helps you solidify your understanding of the code. I tend to write like this: while(foo) { code; } rather than while(foo) { code; } I use newlines to separate tasks in the code. Example: // do the foo check if(foo){ removeFoo(); } // now perform the bar operation if(shouldDoBar) { performBar(); } // now return return fooBar;
- KevBurnsJr 16y agoRemove every comment in your last example and see if you can still read it. I believe you will find it easier to read.

- user24 16y agojust an example, but thanks for your valuable opinion.
- lucisferre 16y agoI really hope you don't comment code like that and this is just a result of the example.
- user24 16y agoyeah, it was just a toy example. I also don't name variables 'foo' and have functions called 'performBar' :P
