(hides from the obsessivly neat people) ... cleanliness is good, and scripting/programming should be visually appealing as an art form ... but there is a point where becoming insanely obsessive about whether or not there is one extra blank line separating code blocks deeming your code to be good or bad ... that sends certain folks running the other way ... folks like me who care about making it work first, then commenting it and making it look nice later.
I feel that comments are more important than how the code looks, becasue in the end few people are going to see your code - far more are going to see what actions your code performs. And if there are comments, then the next npc person who picks up your code can most likely figure out your code and will either re-format what you wrote to their liking, or simply redo what you made from scratch to perform the same function. |
