Introduction

This is a blog intended to record thoughts about programming. Some notes:

• I like lists
• and sometimes use nested lists
• This is a search. This means Google, Wikipedia, and other repositories of information will be used.
• I want ultimate programming, not extreme/meta/functional/agile/dynamic//etc. programming
• There are several types of programming, as can be seen on Wikipedia:
• Broadcast/television programming (Don't own a TV)
• Radio programming (My favorite music is white noise)
• Programming (music) (see above)
• Psychological programming (I tried this once; couldn't get anybody to listen)
• Computer programming (none of the above problems)
• Guess which one this blog will be about! Anyway, continuing:
• The word programming ends in an ellipsis, indicating that it is part of a phrase. Let's look at Wikipedia again for some completions:
• Programming languages (obviously I need one)
• Programming productivity (but which one? -> a search!)
• Programming by demonstration/example (any that do this?)
• Programming by permutation (software prototyping language?)
• Programming domain (maybe a language prototyping langauge?)
• Programming paradigms (these tend to be useful; must be supported)
• Programming style (who cares; let the compiler sort it out)
• Programming tool (note the singular; one should suffice)
• Programming language generations (clearly 7th generation or higher)
• Programming language implementation (can't find one yet)
• Programming language reference (maybe deserves a post or two in the future)
• Programming language specification (difference between specification and reference is... (potential for comments))
• Programming language theory (must read up on this; need links)
• Programming complexity (should be a type)
• Programming game (Have I mentioned that I used to play RoboWar before I started this blog?)

Two searches should be enough for one day.

Also, I should state the intended audience of this blog. It should be read by anyone who happens to think these ideas are interesting. (So perhaps it has an audience of 1)
