Enhancing Code Clarity in PHP: The Art of Linguistic Choice
Naming is a central issue in computer science. To make code more understandable, a simple solution emerges from the collaboration of domain experts and the source code itself: a dictionary. By leveraging techniques from the linguistics of invented languages, this vocabulary becomes a foundation for constructing words, phrases, and eventually an entire literature. In essence, it entails creating a language specific to the code.
