Experience shows that the success of a programming course critically depends on the choice of these examples.

Software development is technical activity conducted by human beings.

Indeed, the woes of Software Engineering are not due to lack of tools, or proper management, but largely due to lack of sufficient technical competence.

A primary cause of complexity is that software vendors uncritically adopt almost any feature that users want.

Nevertheless, I consider OOP as an aspect of programming in the large; that is, as an aspect that logically follows programming in the small and requires sound knowledge of procedural programming.

My duty as a teacher is to train, educate future programmers.

Software gets slower faster than hardware gets faster.
