KIFS

As anyone reading this stuff have guessed, I've been hard at work coding furiously to implement quite a few mathematical algorithms in java. Never have been coded in java before and, well to be frank, it was a run against the clock, it had to function quickly (it's a bit ugly). So why did I made it in time?

I new all the algorithm by heart, I just could sit down anywhere and code the stuff out of my brain

I knew when coding the critical path and when I did not do that

KIFS (Keep It Functional Stupid) yes, whenever I was out of critical paths i just kept on filling in new data in the structures and did not try to consider them mutable I. just had one n-day bug and that was because of a muck with a mutable

KISS, I specifically choosed simpler before more optimal and complex algorithm when out of critical paths

UAS (Use Abstractions Stupid), well having a good feeling for the abstractions helps organize these stuff in the selection of the data-structures algorithm and the function decomposition of the problem

I had some great co-workers to ask specific questions

Well, having trained the brain for 30 years and having fun while doing it helps too.

Happy Coding - Cheers
