I was taught that no file should be over 1,000 lines. Maybe 2,000 if a lot of repetition was required. What do others feel about the maximum size of a single file?

On really busy/complex forms, I make heavy use of partial classes, separating constructors, event handlers, and helper methods. On objects, I do the same thing when something complex is a viably separate concern. I try to keep line counts to less that 1000 where practical.

function a(x, y)
{
  return b(x, y);
}

function b(x, y)
{
  return c(x, y);
}

function c(x, y)
{
  return d(x, y);

function d(x, y)

  //do something with x
  //maybe do something else with x, if the 4 lines of if conditions happens to come out true
  //ignore y because who needs that apparently
