Programming Elixir Book

Quick Intro

  • Object Orientation is not the only way
  • Functional Programming need not be complex or mathematical

Vim Basics - part 1: modes and commands

Introduction

Developers like new things and Vim is definitely a totally new and different thing if you are used to editors like Sublime, Atom, Text Mate or VSCode. Seems difficult because is new. Everything that is new for us tends to be difficult. So, let's start with a plan: keep it short, keep it simple, keep it going. It means that the plan is to constantly improve vim knowledge by getting new tips, using it a lot and then master it. Will try to follow that with this Vim series.

Estimation

  1. Understand the problem as much as you can(if not, ask someone for clarification)

1.1. Break the task as much as possible in order to have an accurate estimation

1.2. Think about edge cases(this is tricky) but it's a good exercise to try to decrease scope

  • Single Responsability: Perguntar para a classe sobre seu próprio método, ex.: Carro qual a sua cor ? Isto ajuda a definir se um método faz sentido para a aquela classe, o que ajuda a definir que uma classe deve fazer apenas o que é de sua responsabilidade. Se perguntarmos: Carro qual é a capacidade do seu tanque ? talvez até faça sentido, mas
