SubjectWhat's computer programming
Message-ID<mcdg9u$6tu$10@dont-email.me>
Hello....


I was thinking more, and i have come to an interesting subject..

I was asking myself what`s computer programming ?

And after i have learned to program and after i have invented many 
algorithms and parallel libraries ...

I think i am able now to define more what is computer programming...

I will define it like the following:

Computer programming is like "robotics", when you construct a robot
you have to give it legs and hands and motors etc. and you have to learn 
it how to behave by incorporating in it "knowledge" to give it  the 
ability to behave in different ways: such as walk , and jump etc. so 
computer programming is like robotics , because when you construct a 
computer program it is like constructing a robot, you have to construct 
every parts of the program by constructing "objects" and there 
"properties", and you have to give your program "knowlege" by 
implementing the "methods" of the objects to give your program the 
ability to behave in different ways, like a robot... this is how i can 
define programming , it's like robotics...



Thank you,
Amine Moulay Ramdane.

I don't agree with you..

Because what's a physical robot ? and what's a computer ?


When you construct a computer program , you also move and mix and
work with bit and bytes and you also do measurements on the bits and 
bytes and on conceptual representations and numerical representations of 
physical objects to construct other objects from bits and bytes and from 
objects and from methods and conceptual representations and numerical 
representations of physical objects and you have to incorporate 
knowledge in it to give it the ability to behave in different ways... so 
a computer program is like a physical microprocessor or a computer or a 
robot, because to construct a them  have to move and mix the matter and 
to work with matter and do measurements on the matter to construct 
physical representations (from a concept also), and you have to 
incorporate in them "knowledge" to give them the ability to behave in 
different ways: so computer programs are like a physical 
microprocessors, or physical computers  or a physical robots...

According to you, programming is just like cooking dinner.  You need to
take the main ingredient such as meat or seafood, add additional
ingredients like carbohydrates (potatoes, pasta, etc.), vegetables, then
season to taste.  Each of these ingredients is an "object" with it's own
purpose and reason for adding.

So you might as well define programming being like "cooking".

Really - you need to stop posting this stuff.  You're not helping
yourself at all.

You didn't understood what i wanted to explain...


You have forgot the "behavior", that means the knowledge of how we cook,
in computer programming you have for example to incorporate the 
knowledge of how we cook as methods of the objects...

     It's a lot like editing killfiles.

Please stop using the word "invent" when you haven't actually invented 
anything. It makes you come over as very stupid.

I'd leave the skunk alone for a while if I were you.
