h1. Coding Rules 

 *Table of Contents* 

 {{toc}} 

 An unordered list of stuff we would like devs to follow 

 h2. Naming 

 h3. Classes, attributes, variables 

 * ClassesAreCamelCase with first letter capital, also are all types (typedef, enum, struct,...) 
 * methodsAreCamelCase with first letter lowercase 
 * _attributeStartWithUnderscore and is camelcase 
 * localVariable or local_variable, first letter lowercase 
 * avoid calling @a=function(1.0,6,false,true)@, declare local variables with descriptive name for the parameters: @a=function(step_size,iteration_nb,enable_XYZ,multi_thread)@ 

 h3. Enums 

 Put enums in an existing namespace or class, and/or *create a struct and put it inside*. 
 That struct can also contain methods to convert to/from string and other types. 
 Enums and their container struct are CapitalCamelCase, as their values (see example). 

 <pre> 
 struct RobotType{ 
    enum Value {Robot, Human, Object, NotDefined}; Object}; 
    std::string toString(Value v); 
    ... 
 } 
 </pre> 

 h2. Unimplemented stuff 

 * not implemented functions: put an @assert(false);@ in it, it will abort in debug mode, and do nothing in release. (instead of a print or whatever, which is totally unclear) 
 * but mainly, avoid to commit unimplemented functions.
