I'm relatively new to C++, is this style common? I refer to, for example, putting the return of function on a separate line from the name and each of the passed parameters on a separate line as well.

For C++, I subscribe to Google style. It addresses this.

Geez how does anyone remember all of that...

Your linter remembers for you.

Indeed, the very best kind of coding convention is the automated and enforced kind. Prevents a lot of arguing, leaving more time to argue about the code's actual contents.

That’s a core challenge of writing code in a language as large and complicated and dangerous and rewarding as cpp.

There is no common style in C or C++. This is a free for all area, even with clang format.
