Once upon a time, there was a group of friends who loved to write code together. They had a big argument one day about how to write the best programs. Some wanted to use lots of comments and explanations in their code, while others believed that the code should be short and simple.

One friend suggested that they could write a function to decide which approach was better. They worked together to write a block of code that would take in some data and output either "short and simple" or "well-commented."

To make the function, they used both integers and floating point numbers to represent different pieces of data, and they wrote comments to explain what each part of the code was doing. They tested the function with different examples and were surprised to see that it always outputted "well-commented."

The friends learned that both approaches were important, and that the most important thing was to write clear and understandable code. From then on, they made sure to use both comments and simple code in all of their programs. The end.

Reflections

1. Why did the friends have an argument about writing code?
2. How did they try to solve their disagreement?
3. What did they learn about writing code in the end?
4. Why is it important to use both comments and simple code in programming?
