[TUTORIAL] How to write GOOD c# for dumb idiot stinky poopyheads

Hello people of wearedevs i am going to teech how not to be poopy bad at c# and write good code :thumbsup:

Step 1. Dispose stuff

You should be disposing anything that you can. Such as WebClients like this

WebClient bruh = new WebClient();
// do whatever
bruh.Dispose();

OR

using WebClient bruh = new WebClient();
//no dispose

OR

using (WebClient bruh = new WebClient())
{
    //do whtaever
}

Using the using keyword you don't have to dispose. I personally think the second option is the best as it isn't scoped like the third one.

Step 2. Don't use WebClient

Reject WebClient (deprecated ew) return to HttpClient

Step 3. don't declare stupid variables

• name your variables actually well isntead of soemthing like "AAAVARIABLEHALehfuafahlEHUAHO" or "var1"
• don't declare 7 trillion varibles you don't need them when it can be condensed into a single line

string bruh = "e"
Console.WriteLine(bruh);
//BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD


//DO THIS
Console.WriteLine("e");

Step 4. Less line != good

While it is important to have neat code and not have too many lines too LITTLE lines can also be bad.

if (true) { Console.WriteLine("true"); } //bad

if (true)
    Console.WriteLine("true"); //good

if (true) Console.WriteLine("true"); //also good

if (true) 
{
    Console.WriteLine("true"); //Not great but better than first one
}

Step 5. tips and tricks

just some tips

if (FunctionThatReturnsBool() == true) 
{
    //Although this might be readable as this reads in english as "if function that returns bool is true" this is bad and redundant.
}

if (FunctionThatReturnsBool()) 
{
    //Good
}

/***********************************************************/

this.Whatever; //bad

Whatever; //good

Using the this keyword is gonna be useless and redundant 98.7% of the time but does have some uses but for the time being just don't use it
