This is the key to effective programming. I like to measure what the code ENABLES both the end user, and the programmer in the future (design leverage) - not just what it DOES FOR the user in a literal way.
The code becomes more abstract, more of a model, and the software may become a 'tool'. (You'll find that as you program you will naturally refactor to a more abstract model and things will "click-in" and work the way you want it the first time)
