In addition to Krebs makes a good argument, I think there are several other reasons why we might want to consider treating computer programming as a core part of the liberal arts education. John Grinder, a linguistics professor at the University of Santa Cruz, and Richard Bandler, a mathematician, computer programmer and psychology student, received a grant to examine the attributes of excellence. I will buy into this congruence buzzword, if this is the same Gerald Weinberg who wrote Psychology of Computer Programming. Historically, the practice of code reviews existed in methodologies like RUP as both informal code they will find errors. This landmark 1971 classic is reprinted with a new preface, chapter-by-chapter commentary, and straight-from-the-heart observations on topics that affect the professional life of programmers. Sometimes things go beautifully, sometimes a programmer spends whole days beating his head against the wall on a single point, until finally the light bulb lights up. Everyone ends up learning from their own mistakes and other people's mistakes.” – Jerry Weinberg, “The Psychology of Computer Programming”, 1971. In fact, a successful reduction is merely translation from a high-level language (like psychology) to a low-level language (like a computer programming language), without any loss of detail. If you ever find the time (and know something about programming), I recommend to you the lecture a book from Gerald Weinberg: The Psychology Of Computer Programming. Critical subject matter should include economics, statistics, mathematics, logic and systems modeling, current (not historical) cultural evolution, psychology, and computer programming. This article appeared in a 1967 issue of Cosmopolitan and quotes computer scientist Dr. Sent in an example of the normalization of computer programming as a female occupation, posted at Fog Creek. These are The Psychology of Computer Programming. The new site Code.org launched today to try to change that by helping grow computer programming education in the United States. The Psychology of Computer Programming 398 pages | Sep 22 2010 |ISBN: 0442292643 | PDF | 5.5 Mb This book has a wealth of information on how programmers work when in groups, and is a useful. As most software development teams know, frequent code reviews ensure the containment of poor code quality such as inefficiencies in unit-level design and lack of adherence to coding standards.
