The KISS programming principle

The programming principle KISS (Keep it simple, stupid) suggests refusing to unjustifiably complicate the designed system if it is possible to make it simpler and easier.

To correctly build a system according to the KISS principle, it is necessary to adhere to the following rules:

• All necessary tasks must be broken down into smaller subtasks, the development of which should not take more than 4-12 hours.
• All subtasks must be solved by one or more classes.
• Methods for solving problems should ideally be limited to no more than 30-40 lines.
• Before writing code, you first need to think of what the solution to the problem will be.
• All unnecessary and obsolete code should be removed.
