Programming style, also known as coding style or code style, is a set of rules or guidelines that governs the layout of source code. Programming style may also refer an quality aspect of code that is interpreted subjectively.
Some claim that following a particular programming style helps programmers read and understand code and to avoid introducing errors.
The Elements of Programming Style, written in the 1970s provides examples in Fortran and PL/I.
