is it bad convention to put loops with a single statement into 1 line

[gildor]

probably depends on case, but personally I never do this and we do not allow such code to pass code review.
Also we just have very few while loops

[Florian]

You mean its bad practice and it should be surrounded by braces?

[gildor]

I prefer surround everything with braces

[gildor]

especially loops

[gildor]

it just make it readable

@Florian Wasn’t the original question about this?

list.forEach { println(it) }

vs

list.forEach { 
   println(it) 
}

[gildor]

Usually it doesn't called loop, at least I always think that loop is while and for. But maybe it's only my strange understanding and it look fine for me

[Florian]

No I meant without braces

[Florian]

in a normal for loop

[Florian]

for (item in list) print(item)

[gildor]

Than I got it correctly, I would avoid such construction personally. Also most probably rewrite it as:

list.forEach(::print)
