Minor disagreement. Computers will read any old dross, a computers 
requirements for "clarity of expression" are strict but minimal. Really 
great code tells a story to other programmers, and is indeed literature.

The greatest compliment I've ever been paid, was when someone said of my 
code: "I picked it up, and I knew what it did".
