When I see and try to read / understand FOSS source code files - I get confused or rather the code confuses me - they are so well written or rather to complex to understand at first pass.
Why can't I write code of that quality - what is missing in me? Is it that the FOSS developers are great coders - they know designing / coding in-depth.? Are FOSS developers exposed to great code under great brains at their very early stage of career? I come from Indian IT software background - bug fixing / support / maintenance etc are my daily work. But still I want to learn / skill myself like a good coder / planner. Unfortunately I do not have proper channels to educate me or give exposure. Now what I can do - I cannot keep reading books to understand each bit of design / language for implementation. Why can't I write good code? What it takes to write great code? Does the code needs to be really complex or leverage best Industry standards? When I reach people for clarifications they state "Sorry I do not know" .... _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc ILUGC Mailing List Guidelines: http://ilugc.in/mailinglist-guidelines
