After going through all SO documentation
We feel the best Stack Overflow questions have a bit of source code in them, but if your question generally covers …
in the first paragraph of the FAQ is all that I could find, other than discussions on meta of course, that mention anything of snippet posting etiquette.
Including something like this would be helpful:
- a specific programming problem
- a software algorithm
- software tools commonly used by programmers
- practical, answerable problems that are unique to the programming profession
- being mindful of keeping your included code a SSCCE OR SEE BELOW
… then you’re in the right place to ask your question!
