As if going faster is the only goal of a programmer.

Some simulation I worked on for 2 months were in total 400 lines of code. Typing it out was never the bottleneck. I need to understand the code so that when I am studying the code for the next 1 1/2 months I can figure out if the problem is a bug in my code, or the underlying model is wrong.
