Epilogue
Book 1 - The Silent Void
Thus spake the master programmer:
``When you have learned to snatch the error code from the trap frame, it will be time
for you to leave.''
1.1
Something mysterious is formed, born in the silent void. Waiting alone and
unmoving, it is at once still and yet in constant motion. It is the source of all
programs. I do not know its name, so I will call it the Tao of Programming.
If the Tao is great, then the operating system is great. If the operating system is great,
then the compiler is great. If the compiler is great, then the application is great. The
user is pleased and there exists harmony in the world.
The Tao of Programming flows far away and returns on the wind of morning.
1.2
The Tao gave birth to machine language. Machine language gave birth to the
assembler.
The assembler gave birth to the compiler. Now there are ten thousand languages.
Each language has its purpose, however humble. Each language expresses the Yin
and Yang of software. Each language has its place within the Tao.
But do not program in COBOL if you can avoid it.
