Why do you want to use a computer? When I hang pictures I have never once thought “I want to use a hammer”

That is almost never truly a given. And even if it is, how you use the computer can be more important than the code.

And if you already have some code, simplifying it is also an option.

Restating the context as one where the problem doesn't exist.

Any fool can write code.

If there isn't one, then as little code as possible.
