Can you have a comma before because?
- ColinWright 15y agoAn interesting article that reflects on the question of "Good Style" in writing code: What rules are rules, what rules are guidelines, what guidelines are good? What constitutes "Good Style"? The writer of the article says that: A good writer will think about the structure and rhythm of a written sentence, and make decisions about where to place the very slight pause for thought or breath that a comma intuitively signals, or to separate words or phrases that ought not to be run together. What similar things can be said about a good coder? I do feel included to point out the following: Now, do you really fell inclined to say Lewis Carroll couldn't write? ^^^^ Oops. (it doesn't detract from the main thrust of the article, that it is difficult and dangerous to try to capture style with rules.)
