"It's 5.50 a.m.... Do you know where your stack pointer is ?"
“The best programmers are not marginally better than merely good ones. They are an order-of-magnitude better, measured by whatever standard: conceptual creativity, speed, ingenuity of design, or problem-solving ability.”....(Randall E. Stross)
“Measuring programming progress by lines of code is like measuring aircraft building progress by weight.” ...........(Bill Gates)

“Programming is like sex: one mistake and you’re providing support for a lifetime.” ............(Michael Sinz)
