Code smells are codes that need to be reorganized and makes your current implementation hard to read or use, which often leads to software decay over time. Something I have always struggled with are code smells with comments. The comments I have for my code are sometimes too abstract and vague, but sometimes do not provide enough information for others to understand. Since now I am starting to work more with peers, re-evaluating my comments on codes will help both my peers and myself to cooperate together on current and future team projects.
