Clean Coder needs more mastery
I would like to share my thougths about this book I’ve read recently. The book is titled The Clean Coder, and its written by Robert C. Martin.
Robert C. Martin (aka Uncle Bob) is known to host seminars and articles he posts on his site. And of course the books he published. I presume, the Clean Code and the Agile Patterns, Principles and Practices are well known.
I’ve encountered many discussion forums and blogs with the subject of having the Clean Code, based on rules and principles in the book. I also participate in one of these groups that focuses on Clean Coding in our company. I’ve seen groups which categorize his rules and assign ranks similar to the belt system in martial arts for target achievements. I find that going a bit too far as in only following the rules blindly and completely disregarding other elements of software design. I suggest them to read another book of Uncle Bob named “The Pattern, Principles and Practices”
