    Some advices similar to yours are provided in the Gnu coding standards: 
    http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Formatting:

When you have an if-else statement nested in another if statement, always put braces around the if-else. Thus, never write like this:

if (foo)
  if (bar)
    win ();
  else
    lose ();

always like this:

if (foo)
  {
    if (bar)
      win ();
    else
      lose ();
  }
