A discipline of programming Edsger W. Dijkstra

This captures the essence of pairing as far as I'm concerned – it is a discipline of “programming out loud”. Programming languages are intolerant of error in grammar or syntax. It's important to remember that all programming languages require a discipline that most of us don't have. Alexander's mathematical concepts and orientation were similar to Edsger Dijkstra's influential A Discipline of Programming. One way to get rid of warnings from your code is to pay attention to the warnings and fix the code. However, accessibility is only part of the story. Somewhere in the middle are the true software engineers, who approach computer programming in a disciplined and rigourous knowledge-based manner, similar to that of engineers in other fields. Monads provide a type discipline for effectful programming, mapping value types to computation types. We might talk about reaching as wide an audience as possible, or about laws requiring accessible websites. What I write about computer programming applies to other fields of problem solving, such as engineering and mathematics. That's the person who wants to learn programming as a discipline, and to get more out of his computer, or perhaps because he likes a challenge (but not the hobbyist's kind). Experienced programmers will tell you that ignoring warnings is a bad practice. Dijkstra * Publisher: Prentice Hall, Inc. A discipline like Extreme Programming requires a radical upgrade in both technical and social skills, especially for programmers. Dijkstra's 1976 book, A Discipline of Programming, explains a design process which is very clearly the origin of both TDD and Design by Contract. #3 | Written by Jorge Aranda on July 12, 2011.
