The Art of Clean Code
January 02, 2026Code is read much more often than it is written. Therefore, writing code that is easy to understand for humans is just as important as writing code that machines can execute.
Naming Matters
The variable name d is terrible. The variable name elapsedTimeInDays is
excellent. Taking the time to name variables, functions, and classes descriptively saves hours of
debugging later on.
Clean code is about intent. Your code should tell a story about what it is doing.
