What are the views on using auto in the code? What about conditional operators? (auto x = bool ? 90 : 92)

It is generally discouraged, especially for short types such as
intorbool. Though it can be used to make code more readable. E.g assigning a lambda to a named variable with the auto type https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/6cb80a068dc198832febe456139bed3ae7a1145c/src/net_processing.cpp#L1351 or a boost multimap iterator in the mempool https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/6cb80a068dc198832febe456139bed3ae7a1145c/src/txmempool.cpp#L132 - MarcoFalke closed this on Dec 28, 2019
