ChatGPT - Prompts for Coding Best Practices or Principles

Coding Best Practices or Principles Explained:

• Coding best practices, or coding principles, are guidelines that help developers write clean, efficient, and maintainable code.
• By following these practices, developers can improve the readability, performance, and overall quality of their code.
• It's important to adapt these principles based on the specific programming language, framework, or project requirements.
• Some common coding best practices include
  • Keeping code simple and readable
  • Avoiding code duplication
  • Writing modular and loosely coupled code.
  • Using meaningful comments.
  • Writing self-explanatory code.
  • Following coding style and conventions.
  • Testing code, handling errors and exceptions gracefully.
  • Optimizing for performance.
  • Using version control.
  • Regularly refactoring and cleaning up code.

"Any fool can write code that a computer can understand. Good programmers write code that humans can understand." - Martin Fowler
