Does anyone know of a reason to put a space between a function and the paren to start its call?<br>Other than "When in Rome"?<br><br>I've long not put that in, but I see a fair amount of code that does, and a fair amount of code that I didn't write that doesn't (e.g. sysutils).<br>Seems to be all over the place, but a lot of Modula-3 code puts it in (not that I have seen much Modula-3 code in the world...but...)<br><br>Similarly for array indexing array [index] vs. array[index].<br><br>(Not to mention if (expr) and not if ( expr ). Modula-3 (and Python!) doesn't require the parens so it comes up less often.)<br><br>I always like to know why..<br><br> - Jay<br><br></body>
