Java: Handling Braces

It is good programming practice to maintain a format when coding. These formats can be anything from indentation, white spaces, line wrapping, separation of code and braces handling. Why is it important? - To make the code readable.

There are two distinct way of handling braces:

1. K&R style

while(a!=b){

     doMethod();

}

2. Allman Style

while(a!=b)

{

     doMethod();

}

Personally I prefer the K&R and I practice it on my code. Always remember, good coding practice makes a good programmer. :)
