== Why is this an issue? A sub or function that grows too large tends to aggregate too many responsibilities. Such sub or function inevitably become harder to understand and therefore harder to maintain. Above a specific threshold, it is strongly advised to refactor into smaller subs or functions which focus on well-defined tasks. Those smaller subs or functions will not only be easier to understand, but also probably easier to test. ifdef::env-github,rspecator-view[] ''' == Implementation Specification (visible only on this page) include::../message.adoc[] === Parameters .max **** ---- 100 ---- Maximum authorized lines in a sub or function **** ''' == Comments And Links (visible only on this page) include::../comments-and-links.adoc[] endif::env-github,rspecator-view[]
