h1. Coding guidelines
|
|
|
|
* Use the implicit "result" variable and try to avoid "return".
|
|
* Do not use templates/macros when an inline proc suffices.
|
|
* Do not use "nil" for strings and sequences. The procs of the standard library which misuse "nil" as an error value will be deprecated.
|
|
* Use "nimrod check myfile.nim" to check your program for errors, without code generation. This makes the process quicker.
|
|
|
|
h1. Using reserved words as identifiers
|
|
* You can use the slanted quote string syntax if you need to use a reserved word as an identifier: <code>var `type`: int</code>

const someFeature = True
|
|
|
|
when someFeature:
|
|
const someSubFeature = true
|
|
else:
|
|
const someSubFeature = false
