Code that says why it does what it does
It’s tough to write code that communicates what it does, but it turns out that bar isn’t quite high enough. Strive to write code that makes clear the meanings behind its machinations. Code that can survive the loss of those who originally wrote it; that doesn’t just redescribe its implicit function. Code that answers “why?”.
