Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship
It recently arrived at my hands the book from Robert C. Martin: Clean Code. Martin presents a revolutionary paradigm in his book: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship. Martin has teamed up with his colleagues from Object Mentor to distil their best agile practice of cleaning code “on the fly” into a book that will instil within you the values of a software craftsman and make you a better programmer-but only if you work at it.
Clean Code is divided into three parts. The first describes the principles, patterns, and practices of writing clean code. The second part consists of several case studies of increasing complexity. Each case study is an exercise in cleaning up code-of transforming a code base that has some problems into one that is sound and efficient. The third part is the pay-off: a single chapter containing a list of heuristics and “smells” gathered while creating the case studies. The result is a knowledge base that describes the way we think when we write, read, and clean code. Source: Clean Code Handbook
