What I found important is the following:
- to make your functions declaritive, then you can improve on them later
- do what Geraint Jones has called "wholemeal programming"; it helps
prevent a disease called "indexitis" and encourages lawful program
construction (from "Pearls of Functional Algorithm Design", Richard
Bird, 2010)
