Here’s a pretty common problem, you want to write a piece of code whose job is to :

• call an external API
• get the response
• unmarshal it in the data structure you want
• return everything

I recently had to dig into pure algorithmic code at work in order to implement a research paper.

Exploring the literature, I was pretty astonished to see how clean code is generally ignored in this sphere. I first assumed it was for performance reasons so I decided to investigate a bit further.
