What good code.
At what point does knowledge of the language of implementation affect
the code of the solution? How much of the process of solution is
independent of the language?
Presumably, the more experienced the programmer with a language, the
more he thinks in the language, and the more the solution emerges in the
language itself within the mind of the programmer.
