I look at the database first, then the important data structures in the code. The data tells me more than studying the code. > Show me your flowcharts and conceal your tables, and I shall continue to be mystified.

Bad programmers worry about the code. Good programmers worry about data structures and their relationships. -- Linus Torvalds
