A discipline of programming Edsger W. Dijkstra

Proposals will be considered in any arts discipline, including but not limited to: the performing arts, the visual arts, multimedia arts programs, and conferences or symposia that incorporate arts elements. Monads provide a type discipline for effectful programming, mapping value types to computation types. 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. Still, if the only problems were deterministic access violations, I could live with them (I’m a very disciplined programmer). Abstract for Haskellers: This is a long, involved defense of purity, both in terms of what it affords us in terms of power and in how it enforces “good” programming practices. A disciplined and knowledgeable programmer, who is strong in implementation, but lacks creativity and drive. A Discipline of Programming (Prentice-Hall Series in Automatic Computation) By E. Dijkstra * Publisher: Prentice Hall, Inc. Somewhere in the middle are the true software engineers, who approach computer programming in a disciplined and rigourous knowledge-based manner, similar to that of engineers in other fields. And in fact, some of these disciplines are diametric. They are reasonably easy to reproduce and can be debugged using standard methods (code coverage). There are a number of skills an intern has to posses in order to apply: 1) Have a great portfolio. That being said, to continue with jslade’s analogy, there are different disciplines in programming (just as there are in ninjutsu, and in sports). Many of us, however, formerly self-studied the discipline of programming and filled in the gaps in our knowledge with most, if not all, of the subjects taught in the University programs. Today, I presented a position paper entitled “Programming Can Deepen Understanding Across Disciplines”. And experienced individual who could create great solutions; however inconsistent and unpredictable. 2) Be adept at your discipline (Game design, Marketing, Programming (C#), 2d/3d art, analytics).
