Romanticism in Programming

+
+
+

Why programming I see programming as an art form.

+

It started off in my first year as a CS student during a lecture about loops. +It was mind-bending to see “Hello World!” getting printed out to the console N-thousands of times +in just 3 functional lines of code.

+

But there was more. The TA then asks us to put our newly found power to use by producing the +sum of 1 to 100. Ofcourse, it was a natural application of our topic. We simply set the limit, +and do an increment a sum in the loop’s body.

+

Sure enough we saw the answer 5050 in the console. +But then the TA reminds us that we are making that computer work too hard. +It needs to do 100 basic ADD instructions in order to make this happen. +What if it was a million? +Is there a better way?
