Handwriting Programs in J
I think by hand. It’s easier for me to write my first drafts on a tablet and type them up afterwards. I can’t do this with code, though. Here’s me scrawling out a python function as fast as possible: That took three times longer to write than type. Something about code being optimized for legibility and IDE usage and lame stuff like that. I still like the idea of writing code, though, so I looked for a language that wasn’t just easy to write, but benefited from being hand-written.
