Precisely.
If someone really likes
if (a &&
b)
or
if (
a
&&
b
)
then let be it (in his/her code), but please don't fight
if (a &&
b)
Just make sure only tabs are used for indent, i.e., the last is:
\t*if (a &&
\t*\s\s\s\sb)
another example:
\t*if (condition1 && (a +
\t* b))
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ <<< spaces, not tabs
I think the current CodingStyle is clear enough but improvements there
aren't prohibited.
