| − | If you are editing code, take a few minutes to look at the code around you and determine its style.

| − | If they use spaces around their if clauses, you should, too.

| − | The point of having style guidelines is to have a common vocabulary of coding so people can concentrate on what you are saying, rather than on how you are saying it. We present global style rules here so people know the vocabulary. But local style is also important. If code you add to a file looks drastically different from the existing code around it, the discontinuity throws readers out of their rhythm when they go to read it. Try to avoid this.
