My approach to complex programming tasks (iteration 1)

  1. Define the input
  2. Define the output
  3. Define the steps leading from the input to output in either direction
  4. Spot the weak links/hard parts
  5. Understand if the weak links can be avoided - if yes go to 3
  6. Start implementing the algorithm from the end (starting from the step which generates the output and threading back)
