Some things look wrong no matter what language they're written in. For instance, if you have 200 lines of code in a block, it's always going to be a sign that some effort might pay off in terms of rewriting it using smaller, more modular code. Also, if you see several blocks of code that are identical, or even very similar, it will probably be worthwhile from a maintenance standpoint to factor that code out into a function. Some other code smells that are very common are:
