[Charlotte.PM] OO style and pseudocode

I've found that when using scripting languages, and
particularly when using OO techniques, that there's no
need for pseudocode.  When it takes several lines to
do one logical action, then pseudocode is appropriate.
 But in OO, if you can break down a step into several
smaller steps, you usually encapsulate that by a
method call.

The end result of this is that each block operates at
one level of abstraction, and so pseudocode and what
you write should look similar.  This is a good thing.
