Evolución de un programador cualquiera

No hay dos sin tres, ni tres sin cuatro en este caso.

Navegando por ahí, he topado con un texto que describe a la perfección como evoluciona la mente de un programador a lo largo de su vida. Aunque en ingles, creo se entiende a la perfección el mensaje, que voy a pasar a copiaros:

La evolución de un programador:


High School/Jr.High

>> 10 PRINT "HELLO WORLD"
>> 20 END
>>

First year in College

>> program Hello(input, output)
>> begin
>> writeln('Hello World')
>> end.
>>

Senior year in College

>> (defun hello
>> (print
>> (cons 'Hello (list 'World))))
>>
>>

New professional

>> #include
>> void main(void)
>> {
>> char *message[] = {"Hello ", "World"};
>> int i;
>>
>> for(i = 0; i <>> printf("%s", message[i]);
>> printf("\n");
>> }
>>

Seasoned professional
