Once you start looking at the readability whole expressions, you also need
to look at the use of spaces. The above are not consistant about if a space
is used with round brackets. [And then there is the question - is it more
readable with the space outside or inside the bracket - my preference is for
inside - so the opening bracket is with the function name rather than the
first parameter.]
Take_Action (Do_You_Mind.If_I (Open_The_Window));
Take_Action(Do_You_Mind.If_I(Open_The_Window));
Take_Action( Do_You_Mind.If_I( Open_The_Window ) );
To go back to the original question - there have been studies that showed
underscores gave the most readable results - unfortunately I have lost the
reference and I would also like to get my hands on it again.
