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




Dijkstra wrote a program based on three axioms:. If DH were an accepted discipline, the recognition of programming activities or contributions to databases as scholarly accomplishment would not be such a big deal. #3 | Written by Jorge Aranda on July 12, 2011. He begins by considering the questions, "What is an algorithm?" and "What are we doing when we program? Edsger Dijkstra introduced this sequence to computer science in his book A Discipline of Programming, and it has been a staple of beginning programming courses ever since. A perfect programmer knows everything there is to know about everything: this is nirvana: it allows us to solve any problem perfectly.

Not just programming, but Mozart style of doing things. 'The Pragmatic Programmer' isn't about a particular language or development environment, but it teach programmers how to think about programming as a discipline. As long as I have been programming (about 35 years now) a common, recurring, and never ending discussion though is how to categorize programming as a discipline. To Ander's defense, let me acknowledge that AspectJ has been used for the ugly. From the video one can understand that Edsger preferred Mozart's style of programming. Monads provide a type discipline for effectful programming, mapping value types to computation types. Mature aspect-oriented frameworks offer a disciplined approach to programming.
