English and C
by MG
Somebody I know gave an interesting hypothesis. Good English language (or, maybe, any language) skills go hand-in-hand with good programming skills. Though I have not put this to rigorous test, I have reasons to believe that this is true.
Programming is nothing but communicating to the computer. Language is a way to communicate to people. Every good programmer knows that its not syntax but capability to design the, well, communique which makes her program a success; Shakespeare would vouch.
So, maybe, a programmer would be greatly helped by reading literature. And a good programmer should be able to communicate to people as well.
Maybe some of us just find computers to be better company!

Well, the differences are rather gross Manish.1. You need to speak english, not programming language.2. Well, its difficult to have a validator for english because of the shear wastness, programming language doesn’t have a systax without validation (compilation errors 🙂 ).The point I am driving at is that a good programmer need not be a good communicator all the time. And beleive me, I know so many of them. I hope this will help you get some more good programmers.
