in reply to Value of "RE"-coding for the newbie
I have recoded sometimes, for very small projects, or for small portions of a larger project. It is a refreshing experience, which can lead to improvements. However, for large applications, I would rather follow Joel Spolsky's advice about
reading code and
rewriting software.
Summarizing: rewriting code is hard, because programmers have trouble reading code. Once you know how to read, you can face a rewriting task with more confidence.
