Google's R Style Guide

+ +

+ R is a high-level programming language used primarily for statistical + computing and graphics. The goal of the R Programming Style Guide + is to make our R code easier to read, share, and verify. The rules + below were designed in collaboration with the entire R user community + at Google. +

+ + + + + +
+
    + + +

  1. Notation and Naming

    2. + + + + + +

  2. Syntax

    3. + + + + + +

  3. Organization

    4. + + + + +

  4. Language

    5. + + + + + +

  5. Exceptions

    6. + + The coding conventions described above should be followed, unless + there is good reason to do otherwise. Exceptions include + legacy code and modifying third-party code. + + +

  6. Parting Words

    7. + + Use common sense and BE CONSISTENT. +

    + If you are editing code, take a few minutes to look at the code around + you and determine its style. If others use spaces around their + if + clauses, you should, too. If their comments have little boxes of stars + around them, make your comments have little boxes of stars around them, + too. +

    + + The point of having style guidelines is to have a common vocabulary of + coding so people can concentrate on what you are saying, + rather than on how you are saying it. We present global style + rules here so people + know the vocabulary. But local style is also important. If code you add + to a file looks drastically different from the existing code around it, + the discontinuity will throw readers out of their rhythm when they go to + read it. Try to avoid this. + + OK, enough writing about writing code; the code itself is much more + interesting. Have fun! + + +
