Object Calisthenics

Object Calisthenics is an idea suggest by Jeff Bay in The ThoughtWorks Anthology , and lists 9 rules to writing better Object Oriented code. For those who haven’t seen the book, the 9 rules are:

# Use only one level of indentation per method
# Don’t use the else keyword
# Wrap all primitives and strings
# Use only one dot per line
# Don’t abbreviate
# Keep all entities small
# Don’t use any classes with more than two instance variables
# Use first-class collections
# Don’t use any getters/setters/properties
