The capabilities and productivity of "professional" programmers vary widely. For further details, see Dijkstra's book "A Discipline of Programming". The discipline of computre programming has made considerable progress over the years. Use a list: Code: (setq maxvector '( (2761.11 1898.11 0.0) (3761.12 1538.43 0.0) (4761.15 2598.58 0.0) ) ). I think there are a large number of people in the JAP category who are there because programming is considered a discipline unto itself, with its own career path. Not just programming, but Mozart style of doing things. Dijkstra introduces a function called wp for "weakest precondition". I wrote a response, explaining where Dijkstra was coming from, and I am very happy with how it . People often use this as an example to show that Dijkstra was excessively doctrinaire, and out of touch with the reality of programming, but usually it's because they don't know what his argument was. That's not accidental — I think that, even in as fast-moving a discipline as programming, it takes time for a book to establish itself as a classic; and the really good books are timeless.

From the video one can understand that Edsger preferred Mozart's style of programming. Http://www.amazon.com/Category-Computer-Scientists-Foundations-Computing/dp/0262660717.
