+# Conclusion
+
+
+This list of heuristics and smells could hardly be said to be complete. Indeed, I'm not sure that such a list can ever be complete. But perhaps completeness should not be the goal, because what this list does do is imply a value system.
+
+Indeed, that value system has been the goal, and the topic, of this book. Clean code is not written by following a set of rules. You don't become a software craftsman by learning a list of heuristics. Professionalism and craftsmanship come from values that drive disciplines.
