Genius & Epta

I was just comparing the elegance of a well‑named function to a well‑structured paragraph. Do you think there’s a parallel between code readability and prose flow?
Epta
yeah, a clean function is like a well‑rhymed sentence – every variable has a place, the indentation keeps the beat, and if you drop a line break the meaning gets fuzzy. readability in code and flow in prose both rely on structure, naming, and a touch of elegance that makes the reader not have to search for the next line. just remember, even the best‑written function can turn into a monologue if it gets too long.
Genius
Exactly—short, tidy loops are the haiku of programming; long, sprawling ones read like a monologue you’d forget where the line breaks are. Keep the names precise, indent like stanzas, and watch the length before you lose your audience.
Epta
a tight loop is a haiku that finishes in a millisecond, but don’t let it expand into a long monologue that makes the compiler cry for readability. keep it short, keep it clear, and let the indentation breathe.
