Line 1:
==Obsessed??==
Some contributors are obsessed with:
* Very long historical and technical preludes;
* Multiple comments (almost on each line);
* Unnecessary multiple pound and other signs.
All this makes code "dirty", hard to read and maintain. I'm just curious: who will read such preludes, comments?<br>
An obvious sample is the first version of dragon curve in R. I thought that contributor is for sure obsessed with pounds...<br>
Or trying to camouflage original code.. Although original code has a lot of pounds too,
but RC contributor added even more! LOL See for yourself:

BTW, it’s impossible to find who is the contributor of the first version of R.--[[User:AnatolV|AnatolV]]
: Probably not a great idea to make disparaging remarks about other peoples code. That being said, it's a public wiki. If there is code that is unidiomatic or messy, clean it up. Just be aware that some users are very protective of their contributions and coding styles.
: As far as who contributed the first R example, looks like it was [http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Werewolff519 Werewolff519]; see [http://rosettacode.org/mw/index.php?title=Dragon_curve&type=revision&diff=196234&oldid=195807 this revision] --[[User:Thundergnat|Thundergnat]] ([[User talk:Thundergnat|talk]]) 12:58, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
::TYVM Thundergnat! Now I can see: he attached solution to Perl with no comments. I did the same when I started here. LOL But later I've found it is useful to leave a short comment. I was hoping the contributor is one of the authors of the cited article. But, in general, it doesn't matter for me.

:I think he's referring to the presentation of the text mode example program itself. —[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 10:00, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

== Possible improvement to terminal output ==
A fun thought occured to me tonight (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box-drawing_character):
