In order to maintain the code homogeneous and consistent, all contibutors are invited to follow this coding convetion.
C++ source files should be named .cc
C++ header files should be named .h
Files should be named all lower case and separated by _ when composed of multiple words:
quantum_kernel, quantum_program, configuration_loader ...
Use descriptive names, and be consistent in the style. Variable and class names should be all lower case and separated by _ when composed of multiple words.
When defining custom types using typedef , the type name should end with _t to distinguish it from instance and variable names.
In the early developement phases of QpenQL, many attributes has been made public to speed up the developement and avoid writing getters/setters for the class attributes, obviously this not the proper way to code safely. From now on, add systematically getters/setters when defining private attributes and control setting with checks when needed.
