Too Long; Didn't Read
There is no fixed set of habits for a programmer, but I would like to mention some of the behaviors that hamper the progress of a programmer. Here are the top 5 habits which developers should avoid to climb the ladder faster: No code structure or code style. Copy-pasting code blindly is not the smartest idea and not reusing code is not a good idea. Lack of documentation is a burden and should be pushed on the back burner when possible and rushed when it's not.
