How to Rewrite Software— And When Not To

Аннотация

Nobody ever accused me of being a great coder. I’ve picked up some skills over the years and have seen little decisions lead to big problems,so I’ve learned a lot of what an experienced programmer should know about the fundamentals. Do comment on anything nonobvious. Don’t repeat yourself. Do use consistent names for classes, functions, and variables. Don’t optimize before you have to. Do use version control. Don’t generalize until you need to. See how I talk a good game?
