The Zen Of Programming

Posted by jpluimers on 2015/05/27

From The Zen Of Programming:

The novice thought for a moment. “I will design a new editing program,” he said, “a program that will replace all these others.”

There are different forms of the above.

Think about them for a while.

Then name at least three.

Now go back to work.
