code conventions to satisfy dustin

conventions.md

general code stuff

• comments
  • inline comments should be two spaces after the line of code
  • if a single comment takes over two lines, use a multiline comment
• sols should have nearly the same structure, same names, etc. to avoid confusion
• avoid global variables
• for the brace languages, always use braces & space em out like: for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
  • an if-else should be like this:

    if (x == 1)  {
        System.out.println("bruh");
    } else {
        System.out.println("ok");
    }

• other stuff in the usaco guide (spaces between ops, tabs, etc.)
• use actually good variable names

c++

• naming
  • variables and functions in snake_case
  • class & struct names in PascalCase
• preferably, use ifstream & ofstream over freopen
• NO MACROS

java

• naming
  • variables & functions in camelCase
  • class & struct names in PascalCase, same as c++
• for usaco problems, class name should be same as the input file name (irrelevant for ones that use stdin)
• use Kattio or BufferedReader

python

• naming same as c++
• when printing only a single line, use print with the file argument
• use with instead of setting sys.stdin and sys.stdout
