Book Review: Clean Code: Chapter 16. Refactoring SerialDate

This is review of the 14th chapter from the book-”Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship” by Robert C. Martin.

This is the third project in the book. Robert carefully dissects a class SerialDate - part of JCommon Library

He follows the same principle exhibited before

First make it right- then make it work

And there is also a humbling message in this chapter

All code can be bettered. Review by another developer should be taken in stride and with humility.It takes courage to put your code for public scrutiny - just like artists ,authors do every day when their work is criticized and minutely looked at by experts and laymen

For review of other chapters- please see this post.
