Clean coding means better code through often rigid standards. Explore clean coding through the use of functions, error handling, testing, and other best practices. In this course, you will get introduced to function naming, arguments, parameters, subdivision, conditionals, global functions, abstraction levels, exception handlers, type checking, namespaces, and object naming best practices. Learn that functions should only perform one action, to avoid unintended side effects on the rest of your code. Finally, as a review exercise, you will describe clean coding best practices as they relate to function names, function parameters, exception handling, and the definitions of objects and functions.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

  • Describe functions and how they should be implemented in clean coding
    Discuss function naming and how it should be implemented in clean coding
    Specify function arguments and how they should be implemented in clean coding
    Define function parameters and why functions should be subdivided in clean coding
    Discuss function conditionals and how they should be implemented in clean coding
    Describe global functions and how they should be implemented in clean coding
    Identify levels of abstraction and how they should be implemented in clean coding
  • Describe the importance of exception handling and how it should be utilized in clean coding
    Recall exception handling techniques and how they improve code
    Specify type checking and how it relates to clean coding
    List side effects that can be experienced when using functions and recognize how they can be avoided
    Describe best practices for naming, namespaces, objects, and functions
    Describe clean coding best practices
