The Composed Method pattern

One of the things I've adopted over the years in my own programming is the use of small methods -- that is, small as in few lines of code. It's made much easier by the use of a good Extract Method refactoring tool.

I was delighted to learn recently that this practice is known as the Composed Method pattern.
