_______________________________________________________________________________ / A novice asked the Master: "Here is a programmer that never designs, \ | documents, or tests his programs. Yet all who know him consider him one of | | the best programmers in the world. Why is this?" | | The Master replies: "That programmer has mastered the Tao. He has | | gone beyond the need for design; he does not become angry when the system | | crashes, but accepts the universe without concern. He has gone beyond the | | need for documentation; he no longer cares if anyone else sees his code. He | | has gone beyond the need for testing; each of his programs are perfect within | | themselves, serene and elegant, their purpose self-evident. Truly, he has | | entered the mystery of the Tao." | \ -- Geoffrey James, "The Tao of Programming" / -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
