Whats the productivity coefficient for Java? Or Javascript? Or Python? or Ruby? Or Assembly? or C?
I only ask because I've never gotten a straight answer with an actual number.
- kaba0 5y agoBecause there is no way to define such a number. We only “know” as per Brook’s famous paper, No silver bullets that this number has not passed a cumulative value of 10 in like 3 decades now, since the first programming languages. The only way to increase productivity is through code reuse - and given the flourishing JVM ecosystem, Java has that as a big plus.
