This is something I've been thinking about for a while. However, I approach it from the perspective of "Can we come up with a way that we can combine coding with meditation?"

I'd like something similar to soroban where coding can act as an entirely mental activity. My fascination with terse languages like J and K arise from this same ideal, being able to code only in your head.

I'd be curious to hear other people's thoughts on the desirability or feasibility of some form of algorithms or coding done entirely mentally, as I haven't discussed this with anyone to date.

I've always enjoyed going for a walk to ponder problems, and then coming back to my desk to "pour out" a solution I have in my head. Sometimes it works right the first time, and other times the process of making everything more explicit and typing it out reveals blind spots in my original thinking.

I started learning K nearly a year ago, and I've found it's much more amenable to coding in my head. Programs work on the first try more frequently. Very satisfying, once you get used to its primitives.
