Since R2020a

Guideline Publication

• Version 6.0

Sub ID Recommendations

• NA-MAAB — a, b, c

• JMAAB — a, b, c

MATLAB Versions

All

Rule

Sub ID a

The parameter name shall not use underscores at the end.

Custom Parameter

Not Applicable

Sub ID b

The parameter name shall not use consecutive underscores.

Custom Parameter

Rationale

Sub ID a:

• Readability is impaired.

• Underscores can be used to separate words. However, they are typically used as word breaks and can cause misunderstanding in the description.

Sub ID b:

• Readability is impaired.

Sub ID c:

• Readability is impaired. Deviation from the rule can cause unexpected issues.

Verification
