I like programming not for the technology aspect but more for how I can use it
- to communicate the intent of the code easily
- to decompose a problem into sub-problems beautifully
- to create maintainable software
- to design complex systems
Hence my interests lie in topics of:
- Flow Based Programming
- TDD
- Functional Programming( MIT Scheme, Scala)
- DSLs
Some books which have influenced me:
- Refactoring book by Martin Fowler
- Code Complete
- Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs(SICP)
- Growing Object Oriented Software via tests
