People commenting like this:

Code:

//Print to console:
PrintToConsole("I'm a huge ass faggot");

//Return:
return;

Or indenting like so:

Code:

func()
{
if(bool)
{
tar();
dool();
}
}

When I read code like that, I always charge extra.

The commenting I can understand if you're a teacher who's teaching first year students without a coding background. The indenting is annoying as fuck, but decent IDEs have a refactoring tool which can make the indents as they should be in a second.

EDIT: For example, I recently made this for a friend who's learning to code PHP:

Code:

<?php

/**
* This is the album class which handles everything pertaining to the generating
* of an album based on the file and folder structure of the 'image' folder,
* which it is set to by default. You can change this default folder to whatever
* you want: I don't even care, smartass. In total there are six variables which
* you can change in the constructor.
*
* If you install this script on a UNIX filesystem, it is important to set the
* fucking rights of the 'image' folder, or whatever you set the default folder
* to, to 775. If you contact me about not having proper rights, my only
* response will most likely be me calling you an idiot while pointing and
* laughing at you. Not really important if the version you're using does not
* have the admin panel implemented yet though.
*
* The file might contain variables or functions not yet (fully) implemented,
* that's because this is a work in progress, thus the project is still in beta.
* The official release date is scheduled around whenever I feel like it.

But that's still Java right? I'm using http://phpdoc.org/ to create something similar to javadocs, but for PHP.

The commenting doesn't bother me so much but the spacing does -- it's difficult to read.

You code professionally? P.S.: That looks fine to me, unless you mean the fact that the person used a string literal and that the second source both lacks function parameter and return type decleration, as well as using the bool reserved word in the if statement. hue hue hue _________________ This is the inception of deception, checking the depth of your perception.

It's like mirroring the code previously //print "\n" print "\n"

You would be surprised. Its easy to do too much or too little. Either way, somethings better than nothing.

At least the 'doc' part is good to do. Just a short description and the important '@' definitions. Generating proper documentation has never been easier.
