=== Variable names ===
=== Variable names ===
Avoid reusing the names of other functions as local variable names. For
example, try to avoid naming local variables ''abs'', ''log'', or ''pow''.
These functions may be used in a later change and may lead to confusing
errors.
An exception is the use of ''i'' and ''j'' as loop indices. If a function
has nothing to do with complex arithmetic, it is common and acceptable to
use ''i'' and ''j'' as local variables in for loops.
