摘要:

A novice asked the Master: "Here is a programmer that never designs, documents, or tests his programs. Yet all who know him consider him one of the best programmers in the world. Why is this?"

The Master replies: "That programmer has mastered the Tao. He has gone beyond the need for design; he does not become angry when the system crashes, but accepts the universe without concern. He has gone beyond the need for documentation; he no longer cares if anyone else sees his code. He has gone beyond the need for testing; each of his programs are perfect within themselves, serene and elegant, their purpose self-evident. Truly, he has entered the mystery of the Tao."

或问曰：『有程序员未尝design、document、test其程序，然天下皆谓其程序美于天下，何也？』

曰：『得道。其无design，遇crash，不怒，顺乎天常；其无documentation，或视其程序，不念；其无testing，程序极美，优哉雅哉，不言自明。信夫！入道也！』
