A discipline of programming Edsger W. Dijkstra
Publisher: Prentice Hall, Inc.




In fact, Dijkstra should go at the top, followed by Knuth. According to Dijkstra's experience, described in chapter "The problem of next permutation" of "A Discipline of Programming", the separation of code and data is essential for clarity. I think "A Discipline of Programming", " Formal Development of Programs and Proofs" or "A Method of Programming" by Edsger W. Mature aspect-oriented frameworks offer a disciplined approach to programming. To Ander's defense, let me acknowledge that AspectJ has been used for the ugly. It starts with the premise, from Guido's prior work on ABC, to make a simple but easy to understand language. Python has an identity crisis sometimes. For a long time I thought that Dijkstra's 1976 book “A Discipline of Programming” was a preview of the promised land by showing how to do this, not with assertions, but with guarded commands and weakest preconditions. Today, I presented a position paper entitled “Programming Can Deepen Understanding Across Disciplines”. Programming is probably the greatest, and most criminally untapped teaching tool we have developed in the last century. 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. I think there are a large number of people in the JAP category who are there because programming is considered a discipline unto itself, with its own career path. If you are feeling scholarly, Edsger W. The sole justification for discipline in software development and maintenance, is that it as it prevents defects. Dijkstra made a similar argument on page 56 of his book "A Discipline of Programming", together with another argument in support of the != form. The discipline of computre programming has made considerable progress over the years. 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). Dijkstra should be included here. The capabilities and productivity of "professional" programmers vary widely.
