Code Formatting Guidelines

General Formatting Guidelines for Julia code contributions

• Follow the latest dev version of Julia Style Guide.
• Use whitespace to make the code more readable
• No whitespace at the end of a line (trailing whitespace)
• Comments are good, especially when they explain the algorithm
• Try to adhere to a 92 character line length limit
• It is generally preferred to use ASCII operators and identifiers over Unicode equivalents whenever possible
• In docstrings refer to the language as "Julia" and the executable as "julia"

General Formatting Guidelines For C code contributions

• 4 spaces per indentation level, no tabs
• Space between if and ( (if (x) ...)
• Newline before opening { in function definitions
• f(void) for 0-argument function declarations
• Newline between } and else instead of } else {
• If one part of an if..else chain uses { } then all should
• No whitespace at the end of a line
