most languages support simply adding "visual" newlines in the middle of a "logical" line; I tend to do this to improve readability - could this be done to avoid your long lines?
- colechristensen 6y agoSometimes, but not always. I often do it too to improve readability, but it doesn't always actually improve readability. Sometimes it takes something which makes logical sense to have in one line and arbitrarily breaks it up in awkward spots over several lines. If you squish code into 80 characters wide, you lose vertical density, making a set of actions more difficult to understand by separating steps.
