Comment on Why is 80 characters the 'standard' limit for code width?parent

So how much of your code goes past 80 chars? What part of it is taking up the most space?

Feel free to add any other details, like the kind of programming you do, what language, etc.

Obj-C / Cocoa uses very long variable names. Someone mentioned this in a post above with a link for example. It's very hard to stick to < 80.

            leftWall.physicsBody = [SKPhysicsBody bodyWithRectangleOfSize:CGSizeMake(100, wallHeight)];
close to 100 characters.
