Variables, Accessors and FOR loops are Considered Evil - Coding in Style.

Our next meeting is happening on Thursday, 13th of December 2007 at 7pm in our usual place (Victoria Hotel).

Phil Rice (Erudine's CTO) is going to present and defend the thesis "Variables, Accessors and FOR loops are Considered Evil - Coding in Style".

Phil is going to share his views on how to make code more manageable and easier to refactor by using certain tricks, concepts and design patterns. His presentation is going to be associated with real time coding and various code examples in Ruby and Java. As usual, there will be time for Q&A, the odd pint or two, and networking in general.

Everyone welcome!
