-A beginning programmer writes her programs like an ant builds her
-hill, one piece at a time, without thought for the bigger structure.
-Her programs will be like loose sand. They may stand for a while, but
-growing too big they fall apart.

-Realizing this problem, the programmer will start to spend a lot of
-time thinking about structure. Her programs will be rigidly
-structured, like rock sculptures. They are solid, but when they must

-The master programmer knows when to apply structure and when to leave
