Quotes by Algorithms It took me 1057 pages to describe the hundreds of mathematical equations, algorithms and programming techniques that I invented and used. Philip Emeagwali algorithms mathematical-equations technique Data dominates. If you've chosen the right data structures and organized things well, the algorithms will almost always be self-evident. Data structures, not algorithms, are central to programming. Rob Pike algorithms data self Fancy algorithms are slow when N is small, and N is usually small. Rob Pike algorithms fancy learning There is no Algorithm for Humor Robert Mankoff algorithms [With AI] Somebody's going to have to think of a completely new algorithm, a new way of doing goal-based planning. Tim Berners-Lee algorithms goal thinking Humans are very good at making algorithms work eventually. Usama Fayyad algorithms very-good humans In fact, there was general agreement that minds can exist on nonbiological substrates and that algorithms are of central importance to the existence of minds. Vernor Vinge algorithms agreement mind If you’re concerned about scalability, any algorithm that forces you to run agreement will eventually become your bottleneck. Take that as a given.
