Exercise 1: Detecting a Long Parameter List — Possible Solution ==================================================================== THE EXTENDED CHECKLIST ------------------------------ def smell_aware_checklist_v2(code): ... if len(params) > 6: issues.append(f"function has {len(params)} positional parameters " f"(Clean Code Ch.4: long parameter list)") ... RESULTS ------------------------------ BAD code (create_order with 8 params): ['function has 8 positional parameters (Clean Code Ch.4: long parameter list) - line: def create_order(order_id, customer_id, items, shipping, discount, priority, express, address):'] GOOD code (create_order with 4 params): [] (no issues found) The checklist correctly flags the 8-parameter version and leaves the 4-parameter version untouched. WHY THIS WORKS AS AN ANSWER ------------------------------ This confirms the chapter's own "smell-aware checklist" concept generalizes to a second, genuinely different category of smell - Clean Code Chapter 4's own long-parameter-list finding, not just Chapter 8's own duplication finding. Both smells share the same underlying property that made the chapter's own duplication check possible: they're detectable directly from the code's own structure (parameter count, repeated logic) without needing to run the code or understand its business intent - exactly the category of check a smell-aware review process can catch mechanically, distinct from design judgment calls that still genuinely require a human reviewer.
