Mark notes in the same article:
Programming languages are chock-full of features designed to prevent code duplication from the very lowest levels (features such as $a[3] += $b instead of $a[3] = $a[3] + $b) to the very highest (features such as DLLs and pipes). In between are essential features such as subroutines and modules.
In this class, we focus on using subroutines and modules to eliminate repeated code.
