Coding guidelines

General Conventions

1. Comment your code (documentation_guidelines)
2. One File - One Class
3. Don't add packages with a wildcard (e.g. java.lang.* - instead always type the whole package name java.lang.Integer)
4. Produce readable code
5. Produce efficient code (in this order - first readability, then efficiency)
