Description:Many programmers code by instinct, relying on convenient habits or a"style" they picked up early on. They aren't conscious of all thechoices they make, like how they format their source, the names they usefor variables, or the kinds of loops they use. They're focused entirelyon problems they're solving, solutions they're creating, and algorithmsthey're implementing. So they write code in the way that seems natural,that happens intuitively, and that feels good.
But if you're serious about your profession, intuition isn't enough.Perl Best Practices author Damian Conway explains that rules,conventions, standards, and practices not only help programmerscommunicate and coordinate with one another, they also provide areliable framework for thinking about problems, and a common languagefor expressing solutions. This is especially critical in Perl, becausethe language is designed to offer many ways to accomplish the same task,and consequently it supports many incompatible dialects.
