It can be argued that our purpose as programmers is to discover requirements hinted at by our stakeholder's user stories. I have learned over the years the fastest way to do that: code design that explains itself, creating the ultimate Story: a business flow that anyone can understand in the same way because it has no conditionals, like a cooking recipe.

I will share with you the simple techniques I employ daily to reduce the cyclomatic complexity of my code to 0, why that is always possible and why you should do it too. The era of conditional logic is over. Embrace a better code design now.
