+ Software = Software Engineering program.
Algorithms + data structures = programs. This is a famous saying.
A look at the beginning of this book, I realized that this could be a 'story book'. In the beginning of the text to see the first story. A super and is his son. I think this teacher really greedy ah. There is a good strong code A super ability.
In making the software when a lot of things that need to be considered. Dependence reasonable software architecture, software design and implementation, as well as program files, compile parameters, link parameters. Software is a very special present. But also very complicated existence. A total of five points summarize: complexity, invisibility, resistance mutation, obedient, non-continuity. I think the most difficult of the software is that it is invisible. The process of software development, everything is invisible. Programmers need to predict the future. However, many of the times are difficult to predict. Software and thus also complex.
What a powerful good software is not functional. As I mentioned in the book. Create enough good software, in essence, customer satisfaction, quality, reliability, software process, maintainability. Simplicity means safety, meet basic needs, easy to program maintenance is enough to be called 'good enough' software.
