Yes, that is the correct form

for the reasons you cite - I have wandering eye muscle issues that produces double vision when tired and if I don't align braces like that I can't generally follow the code.

So I will reformat other people's code when reading it for comprehension, review, critique, etc. I also always required students to format that way and did serious point dingage when they use other styles (hey, I'm teacher, that makes me the client and thus the king).

I've heard arguments for and against that - (ben_tilly) - (38) - Oct. 31, 2005, 03:37:28 PM EST
