Coding Standards

Rules for code writing (naming, formatting, documentation).

• Ex: Use camelCase for variables, PascalCase for classes, header comments, max line length 80, indentation 4 spaces.

Coding Guidelines

Best practices (not mandatory) for quality:

• Avoid goto, limit function length <30 lines, single entry/exit, error handling, reuse.

Code Review Techniques

1. Inspection (Fagan) - Formal, checklist, moderator, 3-7 people, record defects.
2. Walkthrough - Author explains, informal feedback.
3. Peer Review / Pair Programming - Colleagues review via tool (GitHub PR) or driver-navigator.
4. Static Analysis - Automated tool check (lint, SonarQube).

Benefits: Early defect removal (60-90%), knowledge sharing, standards enforcement.
