Defensive programming is carefully guarded programming that helps you construct reliable software by designing each component so it protects itself as much as possible, for example, by checking that undocument undocumented assumptions remain valid [Goodliffe 2006].

Program understandability is the ease with which the program can be understood, that is, the ability to determine what a program does and how it works by reading its source code and accompanying documentation [Grubb 2013]. Another term used to describe this property of source code is readability. Understandable code is easier to maintain , in that because software maintainers are less likely to introduce defects of if the code is clear and comprehensible. Understandability helps in manual analysis of source code because it allows the auditor to more easily spot defects and vulnerabiltiiesvulnerabilities.
