Interesting Quotes
BS: I avoid teaching "how to think." I suspect that's best taught through lots of good examples. So I give lots of good examples (to set a standard) including examples of gradual development of a program from early imperfect versions.
BS: I think of math as a splendid way to learn to think straight. Exactly what math to learn and exactly where what kinds of math can be applied is secondary to me.
