Do you take perfectly well-functioning code and change it to show no outward improvements at all, only implementation improvements? Is it worth the trouble? I find that it's time-consuming and an escape from the stuff that really needs to be done, but I do it anyway. Because I like pretty code, and I tend to change my mind quite often about what qualifies as pretty code. |

If it's pretty for pretties sake, then no I try to avoid it. But I will sometimes reimplement small sections in order to make my code more extensible and durable. I also try to take the time to code it right the first time in order to avoid this kind of re-factoring in the future. |

I don't often get a chance to go back to code, these days, but if I am retweaking code it'll be purely for functionality rather than making the code look good. Most folk who've seen my code will testify to that! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
