That is a recurring problem. The structure is easy to follow. Variable names often suck. I think they get it from their Algebra and Calculus classes because that was first type of books I saw using those letters almost exclusively.
- e12e 10y agoIt's almost as if algebra would also make more sense with better variable names, rather than simple letters...

Then use algebra with those variables to model the problem in math. Solve it. Others understand it more easily in peer review. Much like programming and code review.
