<p><font size="4">I got situations where method refactoring failed
because of the reasons mentioned in Joel work. However, the
resulting factored code in his example afraid me because of a
degradation in code understanding. I will test when such
opportunities arise again.</font></p>

Hilaire,
<div> I think Joel's example isn't effective for understanding its
impact on real code, it only shows how it works.</div>
<div> In a real-life example it is a very useful refactoring. By
the way, you can decide not to use it and just apply the
refactoring only to the selected code as before.</div>
<div> Joel, maybe you can explain more about that particular
improvement of the extract method.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> I take the time to congratulate Joel for this work, which is
part of his master's thesis that he will be defending soon :-)
Thanks Joel!!! </div>
