Do you consider what you do to be programming? How does it compare to, say, hand-writing C?

- ido 6y agoSurely he considers it programming if he self describes as an active programmer?
- dleslie 6y agoHe might be doing other code work, as well. I was honestly curious how it compared. What tools and processes transfer over, that kinb of thing.
- genedangelo 6y agoThere is no doubt what I do is programming. It's similar in some ways to SQL, but the tool I use enables me to implement much more complexity than possible in plain SQL. It actually enables a lot of the functionality available in a procedural language like C, but within a structure built around database manipulations and joins. In this way it breaks the bounds of memory constraints and becomes a big data programming language. Admittedly, I don't have to type out individual commands, but that's a good thing. The logic is the same, but the development time is much less. It enables you to concentrate more on the algorithm design while the command syntax and other minutiae are handled in a much more efficient (and maintainable) manner.
- dleslie 6y agoThat's quite interesting! Thanks for responding. :) You don't type; is the way you create this logic similar to Ladder Logic, Pure Data or Touch Designer?
