Re: bloated 'if' formatting

I'd do any of:

if (condition && condition && condition) {
    ...
}
if (condition &&
    condition &&
    condition) {
    ...
}
if (condition
 && condition
 && condition) {
    ...
}
[download]

I typically use the first if it's short and fits on one line. I choose between the latter two depending on the phase of the moon, or the number of times my cat purrs.

Sometimes, I write:

if (condition && condition &&
    and_a_very_long_condition) {
    ...
}

I also used to use: `if (condition && condition && condition) { code }` [download] But I didn't like the effect of conditions having the same indentation level as the subsequent code (since I also use 4 column indenting), making it difficult to discern the condition from the code, at least at a first sight. So from now on, I think I'll use the other construct: `if (condition && condition && condition) { code }` [download] that was unknown to me :^). -- David Serrano	[reply] [d/l] [select]
