<p>You are likely at first to choose names that are too short. Don't be afraid of longer, more descriptive names.</p>
<p>If a name becomes slightly inaccurate due to code changes, rename it eagerly.</p>
<p>Be consistent: always name the same concept the same way in all parts of your system. If you discover an inconsistency, fix it eagerly.</p>
<h3>Be warned</h3>
<p>Some fraction of experienced programmers will disagree violently with my recommendations. </p>
<p>This is mostly because most programmers are extremely detail-oriented. The omission of subtleties enrages this group more severely than the general public. These rules are simple because they are for beginners, but that will not assuage some portion of people. They will be angry that these rules are sometimes wrong.</p>
<p>Other programmers will object to these rules on different grounds. For example, some will say that creating too many methods is equally bad as having large methods. I believe these people are wrong. But even if they weren't, beginners so consistenly create methods that are too long that they need not worry about the other extreme.</p>

<p>You can see me discuss all these topics, refactor code to follow the guidelines, and explain my TDD workflow in <a href="https://peepcode.com/products/play-by-play-benorenstein">this 96-minute Peepcode screencast</a>. </p>
