Funny thing is, the least time consuming aspect of making programs is encoding solutions in source form. For example, a reasonable typist can produce thousands of text lines per workday if they know what must be typed (such as transcribing documents).

What takes longest when producing programmatic solutions is understanding what must be typed in the first place. After that, the rest is just an exercise in typing and picking good file/type/variable names.
