In computer programming and software design, code refactoring is the process of restructuring existing source code—changing the factoring—without changing its external behavior. Refactoring is intended to improve the design, structure, and/or implementation of the software (its non-functional attributes), while preserving its functionality.
Structured analysis breaks down a software system from the system context level to system functions and data entities as described by Tom DeMarco. [1] Object-oriented decomposition breaks a large system down into progressively smaller classes or objects that are responsible for part of the problem domain.
Thus, a code smell is a driver for refactoring. Factors such as the understandability of code, how easy it is to be modified, the ease in which it can be enhanced to support functional changes, the code's ability to be reused in different settings, how testable the code is, and code reliability are factors that can be used to identify code smells.
Refactoring is a means of addressing the problem of software rot. It is described as the process of rewriting existing code to improve its structure without affecting its external behaviour. [ 9 ] This includes removing dead code and rewriting sections that have been modified extensively and no longer work efficiently.
A built-in function, or builtin function, or intrinsic function, is a function for which the compiler generates code at compile time or provides in a way other than for other functions. [23] A built-in function does not need to be defined like other functions since it is built in to the programming language. [24]

Procedural programming languages such as C and Pascal can separate concerns into procedures or functions. Aspect-oriented programming languages can separate concerns into aspects and objects. Separation of concerns is an important design principle in many other areas as well, such as urban planning, architecture and information design. [5]
