Some quotes

0.A file is either

(1) empty, or
(2) a line followed by a file.

so, when we need computation, first build a data structure, then write a *recurisive*
procedure to manuiplate.
 

1. Randell:
do it recursively:
 Any idea is better when made recursive.

2. Dijkstra:

An efficient program is an exercise in logical brinksmanship.

3. Lamport:

A distributed system is a system in which I can not get my work done because a computer has failed that I have never even heard of.

4. Peter Norvig:
Programming In a language
The design is constrained by what the language offers

Programming Into a language
The design is done independently of language, then the design is implemented using features at hand

Programming On a language
The design and language meet half way.  This is programming into the language you wish you had; a language you build on the base language.
Sometimes called Stratified Design.
