DoNotCopyAndPasteCode
DoNotCopyAndPasteCode
Don't copy & paste large chunks of code. The severity of this rule is based on the size of the duplication.
Having lots of duplicated code leads to duplicated bugs and higher maintenance costs.
Where possible, refactor the code by either moving it into a parameterized method if it
is internal to a class, or moving it to a common utility class if it can be used by many classes.
