fun with KataArgs

by | Feb 25, 2009 | Coding Skills

I’m having fun with this KataArgs. In my last post, I took a closer look at Bob Martin’s Java and Ruby solutions to it. Since then, we have tackled this Kata at a couple of GothPy meetings. (My coding dojo; the code is here.)

Several of us did some more work on the kata individually after the meetings, and a lively discussion on our mailing list ensued. I also challenged the local Ruby user group Got.rb to have a go at it, and one person posted his solution there too.

It’s all good fun, anyway, and hopefully we’re all learning something about what we mean by “clean code” along the way.

Hi – I´m Emily!

I am an independent consultant with Bache Consulting and chair of the Samman Technical Coaching Society.  As a technical coach I work with software development organizations who want to get better at the technical practices needed to be agile, including Test-Driven Development, Refactoring and Incremental Design. I live in Gothenburg, Sweden, although I am originally from the UK. I’ve written two books: “Technical Agile Coaching with the Samman method” and  “The Coding Dojo Handbook”. I teach for both O’Reilly and  Pluralsight. I’m married to Geoff Bache, creator of TextTest.
