Ohhhh yeah. To me coding is organic. I know what I want the program to
do, I dunno how to get there. Actually doing helps me think and see where to
go. Ya get this working, then you branch out and do this. In the process
this doesn't work so you tweak it a little. The whole notion of designing the
program before you program it seems odd because programming is designing IMHO.
