I couldn't do that from memory, not something that is needed 99.99% of the time. Just use a standard library.
I would agree that people should be able to understand what type of algorithm to use in different situations.
Most code I've seen isnt very good. The degree the author has (or the absence of one) has not been a useful predictor of code quality in my experience.

- MattPalmer1086 3y agoOk, do share! What's your point?
- llm_trw 3y agoYou are building skyscrapers with Lego in the name of efficiency.
- MattPalmer1086 3y agoNo, you are using appropriate materials instead of gold plating every last rivet.
- llm_trw 3y agoIf you were using appropriate materials then software wouldn't be a giant pile of shit.
- MattPalmer1086 3y agoI'd say software mostly suffers from poor construction and maintenance rather than the inappropriate use of materials. This is largely driven by economic factors requiring fast delivery, not specifically the skills of the developers (although that is clearly a factor). Do you have a different perspective ?
