A Coder Interview With John D. Cook

I have cited John D. Cook’s blog more than once.

I must confess that I cited this interview for the following quote:

What advice would you offer to an up-and-coming programmer?

Learn to express yourself clearly in writing. Buy a copy of Strunk and White and read it once a year.

If you’re a genius programmer but you cannot or will not write English prose, your influence will be limited.
