I prefer to always use the braces, too, but you'll note that the rule above says the braces "may" be omitted. I can still read the code just fine without them, and some people prefer to omit them. I guess I really don't feel one way or another about this one, but I always add them when writing code to prevent help future logic errors. > May be worth mentioning that we don't ban C++ comments like the PHP > source does.
