Hi, I was thinking to wrtite a series of tips on Refactoring exercise from past couple of months.Here goes the result of that exercise

Tip 1

Try to declare the variable close to its first value assignment. For eg : Try to avoid this -
private void Method()
{
   int Var1;
   int Var2;
   int Var3;
   //Some more statements


   Var1 = 10;
}

Good Practice


private void Method()
{
   int Var2;
   int Var3;
   //Some more statements

   int Var1;
   Var1 = 10;
}

This approach will help to increase the readability of the code snippet,Hence easy to maintain and enhance. I hope this helps. Regards, -Vinayak
