Pare Programming

Refactoring code; slimming down a codebase; optimizing existing code.

This codebase is out of control, it needs some pare programming.

tuple-programming

In programming languages, such as Lisp, Python, Linda, and others, a tuple (pronounced TUH-pul) is an ordered set of values. tuple programming is a new wave of agile software engineering practice where a "tuple" of programmers sit around a workstation and work together on a problem.

Programming Block

A term referring to programming when you completely have no ideas of what to make, or how to continue. You actually know how to, but you just can't think how.

Sam: Ugh, I don't know what to make.......
Sam's Friend: Ah, so you have a Programming Block?
Sam: Yes.

voodoo programming

Using code or a programming technique(more often than not, a complicated one) without understanding what it actually does and why it solves a particular problem.

-What does this function do?
- I don't know. I just cut and pasted it from stackoverflow.com
- We are not doing voodoo programming here. I'm reverting this commit.

c programming

C is a general-purpose, imperative computer programming language, supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope and recursion, while a static type system prevents many unintended operations.

Programming the ENIAC

Used to describe a particularly daunting and tedious task, but usually one with very good outcomes. Originates as a reference to the programming of the first computer, the ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator And Computer), which would take hours to program simple math functions. Programming was done with a series of switches and in binary (1s and 0s).

"Passing Ms. Smith's English class is like programming the ENIAC."
