Note: I *have* managed to pretty thourougly understand lambdabot, but it took a while, wasn't particularly easy, and anyway lambdabot's dependency groups are quite small compared to eg lambdabot's. I'm hoping to make things easier for myself.
imho, the problem is common for any language and it's just because most of programmers don't like to write comments. in my own program, comments/code ratio is about 1:1 and i, after 2 years of development, still understand it's every line :) just compare yi and lambdadot with two best commented libs i've seen - base and MissingH
I had to go and check this! Code Comments Lambdabot: TOTAL: 14263 5063 Yi: TOTAL: 3314 3270 Data.ByteString: TOTAL: 3255 3135 Data.Binary: TOTAL: 782 849 hmp3: TOTAL: 2351 2236 base: TOTAL: 43513 29009 MissingH: TOTAL: 6492 2017 Lambdabot wasn't commented at all until about 2 years ago! It's had a strange history. Not sure what this all means. -- Don
