[dba-Tech] How to write beautiful code

[Gustav Brock]

Hi Arthur

I do, though I don't start with pen and paper. Also, I must admit, it is mostly to please myself when reading my old code, rather than for the benefit of the coming generation - realising it may not need my code at all.

How many of you listers take into consideration whether your code is
beautiful or not? I confess that I'm a big fan of both beauty and
refactoring, I liken this process to an artist's sketches that lead
ultimately to a painting.
