Question 17.9

Where can I get the ``Indian Hill Style Guide'' and other coding standards?


Various documents are available for anonymous ftp from:

	Site:			File or directory:

	cs.washington.edu	pub/cstyle.tar.Z
			(the updated Indian Hill guide)

	ftp.cs.toronto.edu	doc/programming
				(including Henry Spencer's
				``10 Commandments for C Programmers'')
	ftp.cs.umd.edu		pub/style-guide

You may also be interested in the books The Elements of Programming Style, Plum Hall Programming Guidelines, and C Style: Standards and Guidelines; see the Bibliography. (The Standards and Guidelines book is not in fact a style guide, but a set of guidelines on selecting and creating style guides.)
