Readability is the ease with which a reader can understand a written text. The readability of a particular text depends on content (for example, the complexity of its vocabulary and syntax) and typography (for example, its font size, line height, and line length). Researchers have used various factors to measure readability, such as
Readability is different from legibility—which is a measure of how easily a reader can distinguish individual letters or characters from each other. Readability can determine the ease with which humans can read computer program code, such as in embedded documentation.
People have defined readability in various ways, e.g., in: The Literacy Dictionary, Jeanne Chall and Edgar Dale, G. Harry McLaughlin, William DuBay.
Easy reading helps learning and enjoyment, so what we write should be easy to understand.

Self explaining method names, fluent interfaces, DSLs, helpful frameworks... We are always looking for ways to make our code more readable. But in our quest, we seem to have forgotten something. The most effective way to make any code more readable. I wish to demonstrate this long lost secret.
Readability for iOS v1.1 features an innovative new double-tap to scroll feature. It's a nice compromise for those that enjoy scrolling ahead a page at a time. Of course, if you're all about good ol' scrolling, that works as well. Best of both worlds! Music: Fat Caps by Jason Shaw (http://audionautix.com/index.html)
In this session, Roy Osherove, Author of 'The Art Of Unit Testing' , explains how unit tests, done wrong, can actually hurt your project more than they help. ROy introduces the three pillars of good unit tests - Readability, Maintinablity and Trutworthiness, and shows many examples from real projects's code with ideas on how to improve them, and problems can occur. From good naming conventions, to having a single mock per test (plus the difference between mocks and stubs), roy shares many important lessons he learned the hard way, while developing software. Lots of videos on this subject and more can be found at artOfUnitTesting.com and roy on titter is @RoyOsherove

to you i am the smoke that will make you sick
the teasing scar that will make you itch
the burning fire underneath your skin
could i be your downfall
but, nothing ever slips away
and nothing ever just fades away
five kings playing - so turn on the lights
five kings playing - your songs tonight
and it's one love, one hate, one heart,
one fate, one blood
with no plastic glove we're shaking hands
all the radiopilots that have fastened their chartbelts
they're playing your favourite songs tonight
still i say the words that will make you sick
an open wound that will never heal
i'll crash your world and will leave it torn
could i be your downfall
but, nothing ever slips away
and nothing ever just fades away
nothing ever slips away
something's always here to stay
five kings playing - so turn on the lights
five kings playing - your songs tonight
and it's one love, one hate, one heart,
one fate, one blood
with no plastic glove we're shaking hands
all the radiopilots that have fastened their chartbelts
they're playing your favourite songs tonight
what do you wait for to reachyour highscore
even if it's parttime at its best
go get your ass up cause now you can't stop
reach the point of no return no time to rest
five kings playing - so turn on the lights
five kings playing - your songs tonight
and it's one love, one hate, one heart,
one fate, one blood
with no plastic glove we're shaking hands
all the radiopilots that have fastened their chartbelts
