I love trying to explain this to “less-knowledgeable” individuals! When i explain it, i use the example of “goLeft” and “turnAround”, since goLeft needs to be repeated twice everytime one turns around, turnAround holds two “goLefts”… and so on.

Great read. I really like your stuff about computer sciences, people under estimate discrete mathematics applications in modern comp.sci, I couldn't have survived with out it!

That’s too funny — I’d never really thought about it that way, but reading your description, I realized how difficult it would be to actually teach the sandwich-making to someone who knew nothing about it. Like, how much PB? How much J? How hard to put the pieces of bread together when you’re done? How gentle is gentle?

I have a little bit more respect for programmers now. :)

Nice application of object oriented concepts to real life! Any ideas for inheritance and encapsulation ! lol
