Description

There must be exactly one space character on each side of a binary operator such as = + - AND OR =. The parameter comma operator however, should have a space after the comma.

Example 1

Bad code

    "Line Discount %" := "Line Discount Amount"/"Line Value"*100;

Good code

    "Line Discount %" := "Line Discount Amount" / "Line Value" * 100;

Example 2

Bad code

    StartDate := CalcDate('<+'+Format(Days+i)+'D\>',StartDate);

Good code

    StartDate := CalcDate('<+' + Format(Days + i) + 'D\>', StartDate);

Example 3

Bad code

    StartDate:=0D; // Initialize

Good code

    StartDate := 0D; // Initialize
