I decided to keep some
notes, bits and pieces on
my site concerned with
programming, and
to do so in the form and
under the name of
BitsAndPieces.
How this
will evolve depends mostly
on
my health, which is
somewhat better this year
than the last ten - but
enough of that, since
my health
is the subject of another
part of my site.
In
BitsAndPieces I
will be concerned with
programming in various
aspects- and my relevant
background can be gleaned
by reading the following
links.
A few general remarks about programming languages
General
A few more specific remarks about some programming languages
Assembly
Basic
Pascal
Prolog
Smalltalk
These are the programming languages I have been most concerned with over
the past 20 years, though it may be added I hope to investigate Python
and Ruby a little in the future (and did the former in the past, but
not the latter).
And I should also remark here that although by now I have a fair knowledge
of and considerable experience with programming, I have no academic degrees in
computer sciences, but in psychology and
philosophy, where I am a
scientific realist of analytical and logical persuasions, for those who care
to know these things (and those who really want to know are referred to
Keyterms in my
Philosophical Dictionary).
This background, and notably the psychological one, is bound to appear
sometimes in BitsAndPieces, for
there is a lot to learn about learning to program, and in fact it is a rather
interesting subject for cognitive psychology.
O, as to the arrows at the
