This is my Custom Function and I want to edit it

Discuss:

Is this more readable and structured?

Let ([
thismonth = Month ( Get ( CurrentDate ) );
thisyear = Year ( Get ( CurrentDate ) );
startdate = Date ( thismonth - 1; 1; thisyear );
enddate = Date ( thismonth; 0; thisyear )
];
startdate & "..." & enddate
)
