Clean Code - Robert Martin

Even bad code can. But cleaning up the code might bring a development house to its knees. Countless hours and resources are lost every year because of poorly written code. But it doesn't have to be like that.

Renowned software specialist Robert C. Martin presents a revolutionary paradigm with Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship. Having helped bring agile principles from an approach's perspective to thousands of programmers, Martin teamed up with her colleagues at Object Mentor to distill the best agile code cleanup practices into an "on the fly" book. The software master in you has values and will make you a better programmer - but only if you work at it.

What kind of business will you do? You will read the code - a lot of code. And in this code you will be asked to think wrong about what is right. More importantly, for you to reassess the values you love and your commitment to your profession.

Clean Code removed into three parts. The first includes features, hearts and practices of writing clean code. Part two consists of several case studies of increasing complexity. Each case study is a code cleanup exercise for turning a codebase with some cuts into a robust and efficient one. The third part is the conclusion: a single section that contains a list of the aggregative methods and "scents" that were collected when creating the case studies. The result is a knowledge base of how to read while writing, reading, and reading code.
