Re: improving the aesthetics of perl code

You might want to read Strunk & White's "Elements of Style", and pay better attention to your grammar, spelling, and punctuation. I find that having to parse someone's nonstandard writing style hinders me from understanding their comments, and thus their code.

Yes, I have been told about my informal writing style by others. I have purchased a copy of "Elements of Style", but have only read the intro thus far. My writing style and my coding style are similar, as in I never really had to write for other people. Now I have to write for other people and I am seeing how it can be a problem for others. Thanks for your comments.	[reply]
