Visualization, memory, reading and research skills
Front end and user interface design appear to be the easiest part of the programming problems, but they tend to become very complex if not executed properly. This activity requires discipline, visualization and memory. While the tips below may help they are in no way a replacement for experience, imagination, aesthetic vision and psychological insight …
When we are talking about functional programming, we are talking about speed, efficiency and cross-platform support. Functional code is very close to machine language. It may use intrinsics of the processor, GPU code, SSE/Neon optimization, and lots of pointers. I love functional programming for its purity and no-nonsense approach. Functional programming may be dangerous and …

I asked the superlearners on the programming group to send their advice to the beginning programmers. Below I summarize some of their suggestions with my own commentary. Always comment your code. Commented code is not only visually pleasing. We need to pass our code to other people to read. And if we have done something …
Most of our students who are programmers use Java. This lecture is for them, and not only for them. Many students ask how to use our methods for programming. Actually we took many of the programming methodology and used it in wider context – so using it in original context will be easy. Let us …

When I first learned to program back in early 90s, I thought that knowing the grammar of the programming language is what I need. It took me excruciating week till I could use all MSDOS commands, “for” and “while” loops and some other grammar. I was ready to program! I decided to write a racing …

Big data of all sorts is a good skill to have. There are many related skills: relational databases, nosql databases, data mining, natural language processing… Healthy control of each of this skills means good salary and many job openings. Personally I worked with several methodologies rather briefly, and while I have some skills and practice …
The top programming skill is software architecture. For software architecture we often use UML and flowcharts. These visualization are great for visual markers and often do not even need further adaptations. It is no secret that most software is built as hierarchies. Model-view-controller is probably the most common architecture paradigm. Classes pass the data …

My first job was database administrator. My second job was an RF engineer. My third job (back in 1999) was under title “algorithm developer”, and that was the first job I really loved. Since then I have been algorithm developer/CTO on and off, dealing with computer vision, image procession, machine learning, financial mathematics, semantic processing, …

There are many ways speedreading can help a programmer. The first time I wished I could speedread was back in he year 2000, when I had to maintain a code of 1mil lines. Back then I could not speedread, and eventually could not fix all the problems I made in time. The product did not …
