>What does an algorithm look like? That's a million dollar question. Can code be represented in a visual way? Bret Victor tries to give an answer to that. I don't personally think that it can, but there is sure a way, to represent some parts of a program in a visual way. People use literate programming today in Emacs, in case you are interested. I strongly recommend to try Emacs, LLM's can write Elisp for you, to automate parts of your workflow. |

Unfortunately, while I like emacs-style keyboard bindings in Mac OS X, I prefer to use a stylus and often write things out by hand and use handwriting recognition to convert to text (hence my interest in visual programming languages) --- very much envied a co-worker (who was one of two folks I've met aside from TeX conferences who had read TAoCP) who just started it up at the beginning of the day and got all his work done in it during the course of the day.
