ThinkingAndCoding

-- pages on the need to think about what you're about to do, before pounding out the code:

Deep introspection...

• SourceCode

Right before hitting the keyboard...

• ThinkThenCode - Across methodologies, it's recommended that you think before acting. (...along with XP arguments with approaches of other methods.)
• ExtremeThinking = How XP requires you to think before you code.
• RecordThinkingInTests -- (if done before coding)
• ThinkAsYouCode = a short XP response to ThinkThenCode.
• ProgrammingIsThinkingToo - suggests prototyping.
• TheSourceCodeIsTheDesign
• SourceCodeIsUserInterface (for you and those after you)

Some time before hitting the keyboard (at a higher conceptual level)...

• DavesRealExampleWhereThinkingAheadWouldHaveHelped = an argument against DoTheSimplestThingThatCouldPossiblyWork.
• FuturePerfectThinking = a more abstract theoretical concept.
