<?php
if ($a > $b) {
echo "a is bigger than b";
$b = $a;
}
?>Frankly, I get confused when curly braces fly all over the place. If I have a series of nested control structures and statement groups, it becomes very easy to mismatch the braces and create debugging headaches.
I prefer to have my opening and closing braces in the same column. For example:
<?php
if ($a > $b)
{
echo "a is bigger than b";
$b = $a;
}
?>That makes them much easier to match up.
Is this syntax permissible? If so, the documentation ought to say so explicitly.
Thank you.
