Obviously the code was not unreadable, since many people here
were able to read it without too much difficulty.  The author
too was, rather obviously, able to read it.  Some people might
believe that some other, unspecified, people would have trouble
reading the code, but that doesn't make it unreadable.  If you
were able to read the code then I don't know what you mean
when you say the code is unreadable, but certainly you don't
mean literally that.
