Lecture 6: Solving Problems - Richard Buckland UNSW 2008
Human Nature, Testing, Top-down problem solving. How to get started when you first get a problem. The importance of testing.Also: magic numbers, style - the search for meaning, "why are you here?" mastering skills, why kids give up on musical instruments, pleasure and pain, richard getting fit, software piracy/viking numbers, Bjorn. First twinges of RSI. Moving to an 8bit Microprocessor.My lousy memory about facts and figures: Viking 1 and 2 were landers not rovers, and viking 2 failed first, not Viking 1 - it was Viking 1 with the software problem.
