What makes a source code easy to maintain? [duplicate]

1

During the technical course I did, I often heard my programming teachers (C # and JAVA) talking about the importance of developing an easy-to-maintain code, but what in itself determines that a source code is or will be easily maintained?

At the moment I am developing a code of some extent extensive and that in the future may suffer maintenance by other developers, that is why this concern / doubt arose

Some factors, such as:

  • Readability
  • Clear and objective comment
  • no gambiarras
  • among others

There are a number of development methodologies that are designed to facilitate maintenance and deliver other benefits, ranging from the taste of each to following a methodology, or adapting an existing one to its own, or following the methodology in place in your workplace. >

If you search for "software development methodology" you will find several articles explaining each one.
