09/11/2020, 6:29 PMReadability in PLs is nice, but ultimately a red herring. It doesn't scale. We may be able to read a small snippet and get it, but once we have more code or more abstractions, we're lost again. The real goal should be to offload all mechanical computation to the machine.IOW, readability gives a very small step. It may be easier to build a "structure in your head" after reading a "more readable" representation (vs a less readable representation of the same thing). However the work really starts after you have this structure, when we begin "playing computer" in our heads.
