1 min readDec 18, 2018
As part of our code quality initiative (to help people across RES to write better code and produce better software), we recently held our first Clean Code Nugget meeting to discuss the seemingly simple topic of naming.
In this video, we cover the following:
- A brief recap of what Clean Code is.
- Why names are important.
- General naming guidelines.
- Class naming guidelines.
- Function naming guidelines.
Here are a couple of links that we referred to in our discussions:
- PEP8: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/
- Type hints in Python: https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html
- Design Patterns poster: http://shop.oreilly.com/product/9780596102142.do
Stay tuned for further videos, and happy coding!
