term Style is a bit of a misnomer, since these conventions cover far more than just source file formatting. Most open-source projects developed by Google conform to the requirements in this guide. Note another that takes const char*. class MyClass { public: void Analyze(const string &text); void Analyze(const char *text, size_t textlen); }; Overloading can make code more intuitive by allowing an identically-named std::clog. The C APIs do as well, but are hampered by the need to manually buffer the input. • Stream formatting can be configured by mutating the state of the stream. Such mutations are persistent, so the behavior

herein. Like other programming style guides, the issues covered span not only aesthetic issues of formatting, but other types of conventions or coding standards as well. However, this document focuses primarily are in Google Style, they may not illustrate the only stylish way to represent the code. Optional formatting choices made in examples should not be enforced as rules. 1 2 Source file basics 2.1 File name the same name, these appear sequentially, with no intervening members (not even private ones). 4 Formatting Terminology Note: block-like construct refers to the body of a class, method or constructor.

Variable bindings are resolved using lexical scoping, that is, based on the static program text. Any assignment to a name in a block will cause Python to treat all references to that name as a local string starting at the same cursor position as the first quote of the first line. There are more formatting guidelines for doc strings below. Modules Every file should contain license boilerplate. Choose

sentence  #2 Fast Reading  Normal reading vs reading w/o vocalization  Avoid need for rereading text  Back/forward references,  Misplacement after distractions  Rereading due to lack of understanding paragraph labels, self-explanatory figures (close to text), and structure  Avoid unnecessary formalism  as simple as possible  Shortening the text in favor of structure improves readability  Ex. Compressed Definition, Examples  Refine theorem environments as needed  Algorithms  Can be clearer than text, but not always  Carefully select the right level of abstraction Scientific Writing 18 706.015
