# Code Organization ## Modular Programming - Split code into small, reusable modules or functions, with each module responsible for doing only one thing. - Use a clear module and directory structure to organize code, making it easier to navigate. ## Naming Conventions - Use meaningful and consistent naming conventions so that the purpose of variables, functions, and classes can be understood from their names. - Follow naming conventions, such as CamelCase for class names and snake_case for function and variable names. ## Code Comments - Add comments to complex code segments to explain the code's functionality and logic. - Use block comments (/*...*/) and line comments (//) to distinguish different types of comments. ## Code Formatting - Use consistent code style and formatting rules, and automatically format code with tools like Prettier or Black. - Use blank lines, indentation, and spaces to improve code readability. # Documentation ## Docstrings - Use docstrings at the beginning of each module, class, and function to explain its purpose, parameters, and return values. - Choose a consistent docstring format, such as Google Style, NumPy/SciPy Style or Sphinx Style. ## Automated Documentation Generation - Use tools like Sphinx, Doxygen or JSDoc to automatically generate documentation from code. - Keep documentation and code synchronized to ensure documentation is always up-to-date. ## README File - Include a detailed README file in the root directory of each project, explaining the project's purpose, installation steps, usage, and examples. - Write README files using Markdown syntax to make them easy to read and maintain. # Tools ## IDE - Use powerful IDEs such as Visual Studio Code, PyCharm or IntelliJ, leveraging their code autocomplete, error checking, and debugging features. - Configure IDE plugins, such as linters (e.g., ESLint, Pylint) and code formatters.
