经典的编程引言

在编程的时候，我们一定要想像一下，以后维护我们自己的代码的那个人会成为一个有暴力倾向的疯子，并且，他还知道我们住在哪里？

Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live.

- Rick Osborne

调试程序的难度是写代码的两倍。因此，只要你的代码写的尽可能的清楚，那么你在调试代码时就不需要那么地有技巧。

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it.
- Brian Kernighan

Hofstadter 定理：“一件事情总是会花费比你预期更多的时间，就算是你已经考虑过本条Hofstadter 定理”。

It always takes longer than you expect, even when you take into account Hofstadter’s Law.
