- alextgordon 16y agoNo because you still have to remember that rule whether you use semicolons everywhere or not.
- axod 16y agoAnyone who would write return\n deserves all they get. It's a fun example, but it would never happen in real life.
- toolate 16y agofunction getCount() { return { 'count': 1 }; } Not what I'd do, but a common style nonetheless.
- IsaacSchlueter 16y agoIt's also completely valid JavaScript that does something very different than what it appears to. function getCount () { return undefined { // open code block 'count': /*labelled line*/ 1 //numeric expression } // close code block } // close function LINE BREAKS CONSIDERED HARMFUL.
- axod 16y agoWhich is why I'd say if you're writing javascript, use { brackets properly, and ; properly. I agree, it's a common style, but a horrible one IMHO.
