Writing Quality Software: A Primer
“Okay, so you have a respectable handle on syntax, and you are proud of yourself for getting that far. And, truth be told, you should be. But, knowing syntax is not the same as mastering syntax in such a way that builds quick, efficient web software. This article takes a look at not just writing software, but writing quality software.” A good basic description of how to write clear code. From DevShed.
I also have written about this topic but from the point of view of business people who have to evaluate programmers even though in many cases they know nothing about programming. The article is How To Evaluate Programmers, Without Being A Programmer.
