Formatting code
Formatting ActionScript is essential to writing maintainable code. For example, it would be
extremely difficult to follow the logic of a FLA file that has no indenting or comments, or has
inconsistent formatting and naming conventions. By indenting blocks of code (such as loops and
if statements), the code is easy to read and debug. For more information on formatting and
white space, see “Spacing and readability” on page 81 and “Wrapping lines of code” on page 103.
For information on structuring ActionScript syntax, see “Writing syntax and statements”
on page 89.
