Allman or gnu, rest are fucking bonkers
K&R FTW
Obviously!
Lol, you deranged lunatic.
Putting the opening curly brace of a code block on the same line that defines the conditions the code block will run under is bonkers?
If we're judging purely on readability then I think Allman probably has the edge, here. You can see at a glance where the encasement starts or ends in a vertical column on the far left. Of course, that's a moot point if the programmer's color coding is set up to where it is obvious.
There's an asymmetry to it that always left me uncomfortable.
