If We Wish To Count Lines Of Code, We Should Not Regard Them As "lines Produced" But As "lines Spent."

The Traditional Mathematician Recognizes And Appreciates Mathematical Elegance When He Sees It. I Propose To Go One Step Further, And To Consider Elegance An Essential Ingredient Of Mathematics: If It Is Clumsy, It Is Not Mathematics.
