Have you seen "Dilbert.COM" ? anyone can understand it
because it's not the source code of a useful app.

It should not surprise you, then, to learn that Relf uses macros a
*lot*.

problem with macros is that they are just text replacements and they
confuse people reading source...

When used creatively they are a lot more than text replacements. MAX(a, 
b) is just the start of the slippery slope.

I remember one project where macros were used in a macroassembler to the 
point where the source text looked like C.

Then there is the old joke that FORTH is a language that uses the 
programmer as a preprocessor.

That's my feeling but I spent too much time with microcontrollers like 
the 8049. 2K of ROM and 128 bytes of RAM you damn well better know where 
every byte is.

Each has it's uses. I'm amused when the evil goto is covered with 
syntactic sugar like try {} catch{} or convoluted blocks of code. Being 
an old assembler guy I know there's a JMP luring in the bushes.

I think the purists were scarred in their youth by computed goto.

I think that they simply got conned by compSci twits into think that 
because block structure is arguably better, gotos were spawn of the devil

if(something==something else) //CMP, A,B
	{     // JNE ELSE1
	} //JMP ENDIF1, *the hidden goto*
else 	{   //ELSE1:
	}
// ENDIF1:

CompScis want to think in terms of elegant structure, software engineers 
want to write portable machine code to make best use of the processor.

I did VBA programming for about two years using Excel to handle and 
solve warehouse problems. I don't know if the "macro" you mentioned 
means same thing as a macro in Excel VBA, but every now and then I put 
that feature into pretty nice use. When things would get too complicated 
to automate, I'd just do them live manually with macro recording on, 
then would study the funky codes that were generated. I always found in 
them nice good clues as how to handle those situations, and created 
fully structured and high quality additions to my programs with comments 
and all.

These programs were so well written that later a secretary who was very 
good and experienced with Excel (but not VBA) learned enough VBA and 
modified them according to company directions into many smaller little 
programs on her own! It is impossible to do that with sloppy programs.

They say programming is an art. I don't think so. It is one's analytic 
abilities combined with one's degree of care and peculiarities of 
character! Got nothing to do with art.

Ok I just looked it up and remembered that funky feature in C language 
that's referred as "macro." It is of course different from what I was 
talking about above.

And it is and was so useless and silly that I never ever went back to it 
after first time I understood what it was 30 years back. Totally 
unnecessary along with many other features in every programming language.

Good programming requires sticking to the essentials. If it can be done 
with an "if" statement never do it in any other way. If it can be done 
with a simple loop, never do it by a recursive function. Stick to the 
essentials and write it for others not for yourself when you're doing it 
as a job. It belongs to the company that pays you, not to you. It is for 
others to use. So as a person you have to meet certain criteria to be 
able to do it right. It isn't just the ability to code.

Not in my opinion (or experience). Subroutines are logical blocks 
complete in themselves, so you can handle them whole cause you know what 
they're doing. C macros are chuncks of codes not necessarily complete 
and whole logically. I guess they're to save typing! If you take a chunk 
of code out of its logically whole context, and place some name for it 
there instead, that context will get logically defective. It won't be 
understood when looked at.

That's a little extreme.   Be very cautious if you see # or ## in s macro.

https://codeforwin.org/2018/11/stringize-token-pasting-operator-in-c-language.html

With a little creativity you can create functions that you never see 
unless you look at the preprocessor output.
