There are standard ways to implement most of the common funcionalities.
For example it is recommended to use String Buffers when concatenating larger Strings rather than using Concatenating operator.(which I randomly found)

Where can I find a collection of "recommendations" like this to avoid bad coding ?
There are a number of sites for "coding conversions" anyway.
(Googling didn't help.Do you have a better "search string"?)

    The one about `String Buffers` is normally good only for big strings. If you have to add a fixed limited amount of strings, don't feel bad to do a+b+c. – xanatos Oct 17 '11 at 05:30

    I think the phrase you're looking for is "best practices," but note that what's "best" differs from community to community, application to application, and language to language. – John Flatness Oct 17 '11 at 05:37
  • @JohnFlatness thanks.That is the exact phrase.For example I found this in a millisecond [java best practices](http://www.javapractices.com/home/HomeAction.do). Actually your comment is the accepted answer – Dinushan Oct 17 '11 at 05:43

Have a read through...plenty of useful information. Google's coding standards for C++

these things vary by language; what holds true for one may not for another. you probably should be googling "code smell" rather than "coding standards".

With the help of John Flatness's comment ,relevant Google search string would be "best practices".
some quickly found links for Java best best practices are
javapractices.com, precisejava.com
and for C#
csharphelp.com,codeproject.com

a link about the StringBuffer
