B, although I leave a space between the if and the opening parenthesis since it's not a method call. Regards, Alvaro

"I do" is both the shortest and the longest sentence in the English language.

Actually, B, but with proper identation :-D Perl combines all the worst aspects of C and Lisp: a billion different sublanguages in one monolithic executable. It combines the power of C with the readability of PostScript. -- Jamie Zawinski

[Andy Brummer]

B. And if (true)     JustASingleMethod(); Also I tend to have a lot of catch blocks like this try {     //Some code here } catch (ExceptionType) { /*Sink this type for some reason */ } catch (Exception e) { RecordGeneral(e); } -Andy Brummer

Daniel Turini wrote: Actually, B, but with proper identation So is that 2 spaces, 4 spaces, or tabs set to look like 2 or 4 spaces, as opposed to the OPs obviously wrong 3 spaces? :-D

I have always used B Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.

[Steve Mayfield]

I use to do this:

if(true) {
DoSomething();
DoSomethingElse();
}

Now I use "B" with a 2 space indent per level. Steve

Ritchie. From which we all learnt our first steps into C. (Well, all us old timers anyway) Of course the better programmers did tend to migrate to the more readable 'B' style ;-) Michael But you know when the truth is told, That you can get what you want or you can just get old, Your're going to kick off before you even get halfway through.

B too. Pavel Sonork 100.15206

[Radoslav Bielik]

Used to do A when I was younger, but I'm using B for about two years now. :) My tab-size is set to 4, and I use the same style for single-statement ifs as Andy Brummer above. rado

B, of course; A is unreadable.

B, i hate reading A style, looks like B style code after an earthquake. /Magnus

B, my professor uses A though :rolleyes: Matt Newman

[Joel Holdsworth]

B of course - but i don't understand how anyone could mistaxe if(_whatever_) for a function call especially as the if turns a blue colour! Joel Holdsworth

[skrtbh]

B of course! It's clearly more readable.

[Allen Anderson]

B. However, there are a couple cases where I stray, such as private string _MyString; public string MyStringProperty { get { return _MyString; } set { _MyString; } } of course, if there is more than 1 line in the get or set I expand it.

[Tim Deveaux]

Brace yourself - I use mostly A. I use B if:  a. I need readability (eg lots of nested blocks)  b. I'm working with someone else's code, and its B.  c. I hit enter by mistake. Somtimes I use C. So, in brief ?abc : B, (A || C) Or A before B except after abc. See? Simple really. Once you get the 'hang' of it. In any case, those were my indentions.
