They are all delightful and everyone has their own personal preference. My personal preference is to embrace /literate programming/ in the truest sense of the word: the document everything. It is for humans, and computers, and anything else that needs to read it in any form whatsoever. My primary audience is myself, but since I am an English speaking human others may value it, too, but it is all personal preference.
