    idk, Allman is very readable. Easy to scan vertically to find the matching open brace. Not quite as vertically-space efficient as the best way, but it’s not offensive.

        I literally don’t understand. I’ve read your comment several times and I don’t know what you’re talking about. Sorry!

        Did you think I was saying that made Allman better than the best way? Because it’s easy to scan vertically the best way, too. It’s just also easy with Allman, so it’s not offensive.

      In my first ever programming class textbook was using Allman. Probably for this reason, it is easy for a beginner to match braces. It is a lot loss common industry to my knowledge.
