write some short unreadable spaghetti code and then rewrite it
organized around its intended interface

### Unreadable Spaghetti Code:
```python
def z(a,b):return a+b;c=10;d=5;print(z(c,d));def y(x):return
x*2;e=z(c,d);f=y(e);print(f);def w(v,u):return v-u;print(w(f,e))
```
This code sums, multiplies, and subtracts numbers but is difficult to
follow due to the lack of structure and clear naming. The code does
the following:
- Defines a function `z` that adds two numbers, but then executes
other code before utilizing it.
- Defines variables `c` and `d`, then prints their sum using `z`.
- Defines another function `y`, multiplies the previous sum by 2, and prints it.
- Defines a function `w` to subtract two numbers, then immediately
calculates and prints a new result.
### Organized Code:
Here’s the code refactored to be readable and structured:
```python
def add(a, b):
return a + b
def multiply(x, factor=2):
return x * factor
def subtract(v, u):
return v - u
def main():
# Setting initial values
c, d = 10, 5
# Performing calculations
sum_result = add(c, d)
double_sum = multiply(sum_result)
final_result = subtract(double_sum, sum_result)
# Displaying results
print("Sum:", sum_result)
print("Doubled Sum:", double_sum)
print("Subtracted Value:", final_result)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
```
**Explanation:**
1. **Separate Functions**: Each mathematical operation is performed by
a separate function with a clear name (`add`, `multiply`, `subtract`).
2. **Named Variables**: Variables have descriptive names to clarify
their purpose (`sum_result`, `double_sum`, `final_result`).
3. **Main Function**: A `main()` function contains the primary logic
to ensure readability and reusability.
4. **Print Statements**: Each result is printed with a label to
understand the output.
5. **Conditional Execution**: `if __name__ == "__main__":` ensures
that `main()` runs only when the script is executed directly, not when
imported as a module.
This way, the organized code makes it easier to understand the
functionality, modify it, and use it in other programs.
