Crossed content in chapters 2 and 6 #355

The section called 'organizing code and data' in chapter 2 has some overlap with chapter 6. I think we should have a new section in chapter 2 about why we write code (#178) and how to write good code, that gives general advice but doesn't go into much detail (content of the programming 101 session):

I would suggest Chp. 6 if we still want to integrate this content. 👍🏼

What about putting this in the Stata appendix? Not a perfect fit, but I do not know where a perfect fit is. And this can be done really well. Just that it can't be too short if we need to make all these points. And there is more space for this in an appendix.
