Sharing iP code quality feedback [for @FooNicholas] - Round 2 #5
Description
@FooNicholas We did an automated analysis of your code to detect potential areas to improve the code quality. We are sharing the results below, so that you can avoid similar problems in your tP code (which will be graded more strictly for code quality).
IMPORTANT: Note that the script looked for just a few easy-to-detect problems only, and at-most three example are given i.e., there can be other areas/places to improve.
Aspect: Tab Usage
No easy-to-detect issues 👍
Aspect: Naming boolean variables/methods
No easy-to-detect issues 👍
Aspect: Brace Style
No easy-to-detect issues 👍
Aspect: Package Name Style
No easy-to-detect issues 👍
Aspect: Class Name Style
No easy-to-detect issues 👍
Aspect: Dead Code
No easy-to-detect issues 👍
Aspect: Method Length
No easy-to-detect issues 👍
Aspect: Class size
No easy-to-detect issues 👍
Aspect: Header Comments
Example from src/main/java/yow/Yow.java lines 48-55:
/**
* Entry point of the Yow application.
* Initializes and starts the chatbot for task management.
*
* @param args Command-line arguments (not used).
* @throws IOException If an error occurs while loading or saving tasks.
* @throws YowException If an invalid task format is encountered.
*/Suggestion: Ensure method/class header comments follow the format specified in the coding standard, in particular, the phrasing of the overview statement.
Aspect: Recent Git Commit Messages
possible problems in commit 96d387d:
Merge branch 'master' into branch-A-CodeQuality
Merge master into A-CodeQuality
- No blank line between subject and body
Suggestion: Follow the given conventions for Git commit messages for future commits (do not modify past commit messages as doing so will change the commit timestamp that we used to detect your commit timings).
Aspect: Binary files in repo
No easy-to-detect issues 👍
❗ You are not required to (but you are welcome to) fix the above problems in your iP, unless you have been separately asked to resubmit the iP due to code quality issues.
