Real Programming Pragmatism

Real Programming Pragmatism




Desde el inicio de la era de la computación, los programadores han discutido acerca de cual es el mejor lenguaje de programación,. En este articulo separa los lenguajes en dos, los lenguajes de 'scripting' como Python o Perl, y los orientados a objetos como Java. 

 A cada uno de estos dos grupos le define ventajas y desventajas. Una de las ventajas que recalca acerca de los lenguajes scrpyting es la facilidad que tienen con proyectos ágiles, por su facilidad, alcance y facilidad de mantenimiento, esta es la razón por la que se usa este tipo de lenguajes en proyectos de aplicaciones web.

 Un dato cusioso del articlo es que los lengaujes scrpyting se volvieron famosos y utiles para programadores que fueran de mente independiente, ya que estos lengaujes le permiten a genios y personas dotadas que quieren realizar proyectos completos por su cuenta.

 De igual forma el autor especifica que estos lenguajes no siempre son la solución, como por ejemplo el ejecutables pesados con una gran carga de procesamiento de CPU. Por lo que es importante saber cuando un problema debe ser resuelto por lenguajes compilables y cuando por lengaujes scrpyting.

 El autor sugiere que la enseñanza de desarrollo de aplicaciones debe ser enfocado a pensar en soluciones, sin la necesidad de aprender un lenguaje en especifico o considerar estándares y normas en la elaboracion de código para nuevas soluciones.


Lo cual sugiere que no aprendamos solo un lenguaje, que busquemos la solución mas favorable y eficiente para cada tipo de problema, de igual manera, sugiero que no solo se estudie la syntax y estructura de los lenguajes sino que aprendamos el cuando y como utilizarlo.

The Promises of Functional Programming

Computer Science development has been changing though the computing history, so is very difficult to understand this kind of absatract problems, evenmore if you have been coding in the same way for years. Computing and mathematical advantages allow us to create better hardware that help us to develop more sofisticated software.  In the 1950s John McCarthy designed a  complete new coding method:  functional programming,  based on Alonso Church’s mathematical theory . Functional programming  has advantages for parallel programming. In this article the author tries to explain what  functional programming  is and its differences with  imperative programming,  for this he used Clojure to give examples about  functional programming. There are huge differences between both programming methods, but that doesn’t mean that one is better than the other. Each one has its pros and cons, and you should be able to determine when to use one over the other. The principal funcionality

Triumph of the Nerds Part II

The one topic that i found most interesting in this video was how IBM used the inverse-engineering as a strategy to get back in tecnological businesses. IBM was noticing how Apple was growing their company very fast, by the sells of the Apple 2, so their will be able of being part of this competition. As IBM was incapable of producing a whole new computer in less than a year, their use something named inverse-engineering whic is the procees in which you take something that is already desing and start disarming it piece by piece in order to understand how its working and then replicate it. This was legal only if the engierniring you use to disarmed and rebuild the machine were completely "virgin" of the knowledge of the ROM BIOS, the term virgin was refering that you do not have any kind of study or you werent part of the procedure of builduing this machine. This is how IBM was able to build a new machine in less than a year and avoid being lost in this war. But he start

The Semicolon Wars

The Semicolon Wars As the author tried to explain at the beginning of his paper, scientists have worked hard to find the "perfect" programming language that describes a problem or a data structure in the best possible way. Given this goal, an endless war has developed in decide which programming language best fits this goal. Which the author considers an unnecessary and ridiculous fight. On the other hand I consider that the programming languages ​​are evolving each one of them to achieve this programming language "perfect" although we can not deny that each of these programming languages ​​are different from each others because they can solve in different ways different problems, although, each one provides advantages and disadvantages. Later in the paper, the author suggests that all programming languages ​​have the same computational power, so that the fight is really in deciding which allows you to express your algorithm, to clarify this, begins to compare
