Session!
Comments are Useless and Other Controversial Opinions About Code
Almost all of us have at one point learned a Bad Coding Habit™ that is so ingrained into our processes that we don't even realize what we're doing. In this interactive session, a member of the audience will drive the speaker's laptop as we examine a piece of Poorly Written Code and challenge the habits used to write the code. We will address perceptions on why developers like to rely on comments and give suggestions for how code can be refactored for comments to be removed. By end of the session we will have Well Designed Code that will challenge perceptions on how to write Good Code and help improve overall Code Quality and Working Habits.
