Quotes by Bjarne Stroustrup

Although I do not like C++ any more, I find the following quotes from Bjarne Stroustrup very useful:

  • ‘Sometimes, it is more important to have the right problem than the best solution.’

  • ‘When done well, software is invisible.’

  • ‘We depend on software. Most people would starve without it. We would also be without electricity, heat and telephones.’

  • ‘If someone claims to have the perfect programming language, he is either a fool or a salesman or both.’
