Sharing iP code quality feedback [for @JadeCheah] #2
Description
@JadeCheah We did an automated analysis of your code to detect potential areas to improve the code quality. We are sharing the results below, to help you improve the iP code further.
IMPORTANT: Note that the script looked for just a few easy-to-detect problems only, and at-most three example are given i.e., there can be other areas/places to improve.

Aspect: Header Comments
Example from src/main/java/bart/Launcher.java lines 9-13:
/**
* The main entry point for launching the JavaFX application.
*
* @param args Command-line arguments passed to the application.
*/Suggestion: Ensure method/class header comments follow the format specified in the coding standard, in particular, the phrasing of the overview statement.

possible problems in commit c6134ff:
Refactor AddCommand: Improve readability, error handling, and JavaDocs
- Extracted logic from `execute()` into smaller helper methods for better readability.
- Added JavaDoc comments to all methods for better documentation.
- Improved error handling in `createTask()` to catch invalid task types.
- Made `TaskType` enum private since it is only used within `AddCommand`.
- Refactored `createDeadline()` and `createEvent()` to handle missing date formats more explicitly.
- Ensured exception chaining for better debugging in `InvalidCommandException`.
These changes improve code readability, maintainability, and error handling consistency.
- No blank line between subject and body
- body not wrapped at 72 characters: e.g.,
- Extracted logic fromexecute()into smaller helper methods for better readability.
possible problems in commit 4320b10:
Refactor handleUserInput() for better readability
The handleUserInput() method contained too much logic in one place, making it harder to read and maintain. Extracting helper methods improves readability and makes the code more modular.
Why?
- Extracted displayUserInput(), processUserCommand(), and exitApplication() from handleUserInput().
- Reduced deep nesting and improved method separation.
- Made the main user input handling flow more concise.
- body not wrapped at 72 characters: e.g.,

possible problems in commit ab9910e:
Refactor UI setup and improve task index handling
Refactored UI initialization in Main.java:
- Extracted UI setup into a separate method `setupUI` for better readability and maintainability.
- Improved error handling by printing an error message when UI loading fails.
Enhanced task indexing in TaskList.java:
- Introduced `INDEX_OFFSET` constant to improve clarity and avoid magic numbers when adjusting for zero-based indexing.
- Updated `getTask` and `deleteTask` methods to use `INDEX_OFFSET`, reducing magic numbers.
These changes improve code maintainability, readability, and robustness.
- body not wrapped at 72 characters: e.g.,
- Extracted UI setup into a separate methodsetupUIfor better readability and maintainability.
Suggestion: Follow the given conventions for Git commit messages for future commits (do not modify past commit messages as doing so will change the commit timestamp that we used to detect your commit timings).
