I untangle code

If your code is tangled, I can help! Using automated tests and small changes, I refactor code and make it readable, understandable, and maintainable.

Isn't computer code always tangled?

Some people believe that computer code is hard to read and hard to understand. Much code is, but it doesn't have to be. Code can be organized and improved. It can be readable.

How can you tell that code is tangled?

There is a simple test to identify tangled code: read it. Modern computer languages use simple commands, but the names for functions and variables are picked by the programmers. If you can read the code and it makes sense to you, you have 'clean' code. If the code does not make sense, then you may have a very complicated set of business requirements, but more than likely you have tangled code.
