A discipline of programming Edsger W. Dijkstra

Dijkstra talks about this problem in detail in one of my favorite books, "A discipline of programming." Also, here's an article with a surprisingly simple recursive solution: http://nicolas-lara.blogspot.com/2009/01/permutations. Didn't Dijkstra suggest in "A Discipline of Programming" that each program should come with a mathematical proof of it's correctness so that it was by definition bug free? With a few notable exceptions (e.g. And experienced individual who could create great solutions; however inconsistent and unpredictable. On December 9, for instance, it presents a panel on “The Artist as Musician,” looking at how numerous international artists also perform music. I think there are a large number of people in the JAP category who are there because programming is considered a discipline unto itself, with its own career path. Dijkstra made a similar argument on page 56 of his book "A Discipline of Programming", together with another argument in support of the != form. A disciplined and knowledgeable programmer, who is strong in implementation, but lacks creativity and drive. Art Basel also has its share of cross-disciplinary programming this year. If computer languages were To write a decent program, you have to discipline your brain *far* more than you would need with any language (because, let's face it, other people are forgiving but compilers or computers are not). Murnane, 1993) most research about the cognitive effects of computer programming seemed to have focused on programming as a problem solving rather than a linguistic activity.
