“Programs must be written for people to read, and only
incidentally for machines to execute” — Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs
“Programs must be written for people to read, and only
incidentally for machines to execute”
Clarity
Clever is dumb
Clarity is worth it
None
clarity ≠ verbosity

[string componentsSeparatedByString:@"\n"];
[string componentsSeparatedByString:@"\n"]; huh?
[string componentsSeparatedByString:@"\n"]; huh? NSComponent?
[string componentsSeparatedByString:@"\n"]; 95% clear
[string componentsSeparatedByString:@"\n"]; 100% verbose 95% clear
string.split("\n")
string.split("\n") 95% clear
Adding more words doesn't help
What if you’re not sure?
None
split componentsSeparatedByString
Why save bytes?
clarity > brevity
brevity ⊂ clarity
Verbosity ain't free
Reading takes effort
clear > confusing short > verbose
Find the sweet spot
Remove the noise

less code to understand is a good thing
