Tabs

What are tabs

?

I did some research

Idnentation

What can I indent

?
var max    = 10,
    arrays = new Array();

for (i = 0; i < max; i++) {
  for (j = 0; j < max; j++) {
    myArray    = new Array(2);
    myArray[0] = i;
    myArray[1] = j;
    arrays.push(myArray);
  }
}
var max    = 10,
    arrays = new Array();

for (i = 0; i < max; i++) {
  for (j = 0; j < max; j++) {
    myArray    = new Array(2);
    myArray[0] = i;
    myArray[1] = j;
    arrays.push(myArray);
  }
}

Ryan wants spaces for “control”

Power trip

How many spaces do you want???

No thanks.

Let's talk about

Tabs

“Smart tabs”

?

Are you indenting code?
Or aligning it?

alignment / indentation

var max    = 10,
    arrays = new Array();

for (i = 0; i < max; i++) {
 for (j = 0; j < max; j++) {
  myArray    = new Array(2);
  myArray[0] = i;
  myArray[1] = j;
  arrays.push(myArray);
 }
}

Why even use the space bar

?

Elastic tabstops

I want “control” too, Ryan.
To adjust the indent

That's why I support tabs

Stop the fightng. Use tabs.

Don't listen to Ryan Seddn
