    What problem? They are only suggestions and in the author's opinion. You may not agree with them but that does not make you right and the author wrong; just that you have differing views.

      So, you're telling us that you don't indent code or use white space for formatting, and declare and possibly initialise variables that you then don't use?

      I'll resist the temptation to joke about personal hygiene, but frankly, if your code is messy (and, if it's not indented or laid out nicely, and is full of variables that aren't actually used then it is) I don't want to have to work on it.

      No, it doesn't . And knowing logic alone does not a good programmer make.

      Surely you're being "judgmental and arrogant" here? Also, the article is about 10 pages long, and you hone in one one or two small aspects to vent your angst upon? I await your first CodeProject article with bated breath :)

        Checking my emails I fumbled into a article refered as link about bad programming http://badprogrammer.infogami.com/[^] I really do not believe the crap mentioned there for indentation, white spaces or unused variable(I should have added these are not major faults but nice to learn that doesn't mean u r n idiot). I myself not clean person while coding but that doesn't mean we do not know logic. How the author can be judgemental and arrogant, he/she even suggested alternate career.

          You're right, it doesn't. It does mean, though, that when I come along three weeks later to fix something in your code you have just made my job a lot harder than it needs to be. What it points to, is that you aren't necessarily not suited for a career as a programmer, just that you are lazy and inconsiderate.

            Thanks Pete, learning doesn't hurt and it is always good but suggesting peopl other career.. Looking down is not at all right attitude... There is always someone better than you is my philosphy so always I find it disconcerting when people looked down at others. They can be at receiving end too...

            I suspect that the intent of the author is more to make you consider how you conduct yourself as a coder. Rather than being too literal about the comments in there, consider that they are more about problems that can be avoided by somebody who's willing to learn.
