The Cutting Edge

G'Day Developers!
Do you refactor your code and keep methods short?
Refactoring is all about making
code easier to understand and
cheaper to modify without
changing its behaviour.
As a rule of thumb, no
methods should be greater than
50 lines of code. Long-winded
methods are the bane of any
developer and should be avoided
at all costs. Instead, a method
of 50 lines or more should be
broken down into smaller
functions.
NB: Visual Studio 2005 has
refactoring tools built in.

Better Code
